I don't know I like getting older though life is an education and if you're
older you're smarter
I just believe that if you're in an argument with somebody and they're older
than you you
should listen to them it doesn't mean they're right it means that even if they're
wrong their
wrongness is rooted in more information than you have they've been here longer
if you're older
you're smarter how many people here by applause are 45 or older 45 or older

demographic but they didn't

The garbage man is 55.
He's had some experience.
Things have happened to him.
He went to Cape Cod one summer.

He took a bus to Montreal.
He got a handjob at a fair.
From a miner.

A grown man who works in a mine.
With dirty hands jacked him off at a county fair.
That's what I'm saying happened to the 55-year-old.

More has happened to him.

Me and those few people that clapped.
We saw the President of America cry and then quit being the President.
That shit was crazy.
That shit was crazy.
Because none of us knew what was going to happen next.
Today people are like, the President's kind of disappointing.
Really?
Our President wept like an insane person.
And then got in a helicopter and flew away.
And the whole nation just watched him go.
