Second song, Vermiform.

It's 12 minutes long.

What?

Oh, my God.

True north, baby.

Any superficial clods listening to it might as well be dogs reading scripture.

And if you think... Howard, listen, man, you're gonna put people off with that stuff.

True north and all that, the will stuff, it's a lot to take from somebody you barely know, yeah?

Yeah, I get it.

I got a lot of ideas, but we don't have to talk about them.

We don't have to talk about anything.

Let's just go to my house, complete this transaction.

I wasn't trying to... Forget it.

Tonight I will set forth with rasp and reamer And it is then that you will learn your slope and your size And will you serve under the starry-eyed dreamers Or will they sit in you and worry all their lives?

Or cast away the timber the chairmaker searches, though the chairmaker is dead on his feet, with his travestries hewn a thousand perches for a thousand one hearts looking out for a seat.

You know he actually apprenticed under a real chairmaker when he was writing that.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

He wrote a song like their novel.

Dude, that is exactly what I said to my brother, is that songs are like novels.

You will learn your slope and your size.
