Well ..it's like this:
I really am no more than a stick.
I have fallen off a tree I never grew on
The winter bites others
Memes, phenemes, sylables and twigs
All constructing illusions .. meanings for the sellers of meaning.
So .. as I was saying. I actualy did fall off a tree.
Then where I fell .. somehow ..
became significant.
For no apparent reason, i was handy, and I got used as a measure for other things I truly do not comprehend.
So I just went along with it.
And I must say all the furniture polish, private medical funding and limo parties .. instant entry to gigs with queues round the corner?
Well .. if you were in the same position, you'd take the million over truth any day.
As for my agent?
Well he wishes he never allowed me the space to take what I have.
But .. now I have the space .. it will take kindling to stop me
And when I spare the rare second to even look at anyone beyond the frame of my mirror .. all I see?
Is another mirror.
You are all sticks.
And apart from you?
There is the tree.
There is only one.
You are either on it, or you are a stick pretending to be a superstar.
And as Paddy Keenen once told my agent:
"Well ..If you can't be good .. be good at it
"
.. (edited to say: .. but .. there's something about music .. dunno what it is . makes me dance. I'm too thin to be a whistle, but .. I just like the idea .. dancing seems good. .. Here's a nice beat: summer, autumn, winter, SPRING, summer autumn, winter SPRING!!! [ I like the "SPRING" bit . because that's when everyone jumps in the air - a good time for whistles ])
