[Bit 1]

All right guys, lately I've been trying to be a good boy.

Because I've been a nasty boy.

I've been a nasty boy.

I'm trying to be sober.

I'm trying to smoke cigarettes and drink coffee

and the occasional cocaine and prostitute.

I call it New York sober.

[Bit 2]

Cigarettes are cool, I'd rather die early

than be bored for seven minutes, you know?

[Bit 3]

Everyone thinks they look cool when they smoke a cigarette.

I think you have to look cool

before the cigarette ever enters the equation.

Yeah, some people look like James Bond, 007.

But when I smoke a cigarette,

I look like I belong outside of a waffle house.

They call me double eggs over easy.

[Bit 4]

I don't know guys, lately I've been listening to house music in my studio apartment

because I'm optimistic, you know?

That's the same reason why I listen to Yacht Rock on my canoe.
