| I'm gonna be just like you |

So why did I do it?
I could offer|a million answers, all false.
The truth is|that I'm a bad person.
But that's gonna change.|I'm going to change.
This is the last|of that sort of thing.
Now I'm cleaning up,|and I'm moving on.
Going straight|and choosing life.
I'm looking forward|to it already. I'm gonna be just like you.
The job, the family,|the fucking big television...
the washing machine,|the car, the compact disc|and electrical tin opener...
good health, low cholesterol,|dental insurance...
mortgage, starter home,|leisure wear, luggage...
three-piece suite, D.I.Y.,|game shows, junk food, children...
walks in the park,|nine-to-five, good at golf...
washing the car, choice of sweaters,|family Christmas...
indexed pension, tax exemption,|clearing gutters...
getting by, looking ahead,|the day you die. |
