“The way you wear your hat,
The way you sip your tea,
The mem'ry of all that –
No, no! They can't take that away from me!”

“You can't talk your way out of a problem you behaved your way into!”

“Dream that you died
It takes you out of your mind
The black walls of space
Take me all the way”

“For you all love the screw-guns the screw-guns they all love you!
So when we take tea with a few guns, o' course you will know what to do—hoo! hoo!

You may hide in the caves, they'll be only your graves, but you can't get away from the guns!”

“You have to get away from them. You have to get as far away as you can otherwise they'll kill you with their lives. They don't know what they do. They are careless with themselves and they take too much for granted. They make their shortcomings your problem. The only way to keep your head above it and heal your wounds is to crawl away.”
