("There have got to be a couple of little tickers out there that just go crazy. There have to be a couple of little brains that just kick into high gear" - Iggy Pop).I'll give you an example of a the type of people who piss me off and maybe this will give you an idea of my philosophy on life.If you go to see the Stooges, you don't know any of their songs and you're wearing your best summer suit with a pink, V-necked sweater tied around your shoulders like prince William. You should probably ask yourself....Do I belong here? Instead of getting offended by the drunk people around you having a good time...or throw the sweater in the muck rip off that pink shirt, get wasted on bagged wine and scream "now I wanna be your dog" and pour a beer over your head in celebration.....If you don't want to, fuck off back to the palace because I wont be held accountable if that suit requires a spot of dry-cleaning tomorrow...the psycho in his rubber gloves came round with the boys he said “if music be the food of love what's this fucking noise” a mauler clamped around my wrist with knuckles white as lard he hit the hi-fi with his fist it fell apart in shards they were drinking all my vodka down like low life vicious drunks I wanna be a man about town but not in little chunks I ought to be more manly and stand up for myself but blood runs in my family and I wouldn't have it anywhere else liquid cosh a chemical pain here comes the ground it's thanks to the finest medical brains I'm even around the video went for a burton the guys just fell about when I said “please don't slam the curtains and take the front door out” what happened next is kind-of blurred confusion took control all I heard was a dirty word my eyes began to roll the light went out one step beyond there's nothing left to see my name comes up I can't respond not even for a fee there was no homicide this much was ascertained - oh no! I never died but what of life remained- John Cooper Clark
