I don't know, I'm a dyslexic person and so my, you know what I mean?

Other kids' dads aren't playing old folk songs at the house that I know, you know.

For some reason, my parents decided to move to the suburbs.

you know, decline in Western civilization, punk things and new wave things.

And, uh, I always had an interest in the, in stranger things, you know, and things that weren't normal or, you know, uh, you know, Mr. Roper on three's company or whatever, you know what I mean?
