[Bit 1]

You guys can probably tell by my accent
that I'm an alcoholic.

[Bit 2]

I, as rough as I seem, I get it.
My day job, I work with people with special needs.
Thank you, one person, fuck yeah.
I work in construction.
Yeah, so everyone that I work with has special needs.

[Bit 3]

I'm a carpenter, I hear you guys need a wall built.
Not by an immigrant.

[Bit 4]

Hell yeah, I only have myself to blame
for getting into construction as well,
because I took career advice from a man named Benny Benassi.
Couple familiarities, fuck yeah.
If you don't know the song,
the music video came out when I was 12 years old
and it was just a bunch of hot chicks
doing construction work in slow motion.
I was 12.
It's like, all right, captain, sign me up, right?
It was just--
- Push me, and then just touch me.
- Now I just get called queer for a living.
