I'm losing my edge. But I was there. I was there in 1974 at the first Suicide practices in a loft in New York City. We all know. I was there. I've never been wrong. I used to work in the record store. But I'm losing my edge to better-looking people with better ideas and more talent. I'm losing my edge. I heard you have a compilation of every good song ever done by anybody. I hear you're buying a synthesizer and an arpeggiator and are throwing your computer out the window because you want to make something real: I hear that you and your band have sold your guitars and bought turntables. I hear everybody that you know is more relevant than everybody that I know. But have you seen my records?
