SargeantYorke: oh, sorry, wrong window. |

|
SargeantYorke: oh did you really |

CorporalMartin: Yeah! And y'know, we're pretty big fans of you guys |
|
SargeantYorke: yeah, i heard. isn't it great how I wrote Ok Computer and I still have both my balls? |
|
CorporalMartin: oh shit you read that |

SargeantYorke: 
|
|
CorporalMartin: ah, well . . . so of course, we were curious to see what you thought of our new record! |
|
SargeantYorke: listen man, i don't have time to go to pandora.com, type in "jack johnson bono masturbate" and listen through the radio station for two hours |
|
CorporalMartin: Oh, you don't have to do that. It's in stores! |
|
SargeantYorke: what the fuck is a store |
|
SargeantYorke: anyway i think i get the idea of "coldplay" |

TOM_WAITS: why do you say that |

SargeantYorke: well i mean, heh, it's coldplay, come on |

TOM_WAITS: son i heard the new coldplay album, it's nothin spectacular but it's really not bad |

TOM_WAITS: did you even listen to it or did you just decide to get all snarky about it pre-emptively |

SargeantYorke: well
well i mean no, but |
|
TOM_WAITS: think on this, lazy-eye
some folks like you and me can get away with shit. i can sell millions of albums of me whacking a plumbing fixture with a lead pipe and screaming about setting my wife on fire |
|
TOM_WAITS: and you can get away with goddamn "push/pull revolving doors" |
|
TOM_WAITS: and if we weren't so lucky we might just have to spit our dicks out our mouths and write regular people music |
|
SargeantYorke: well yeah maybe |
|
TOM_WAITS: how about you actually listen to it, i kind of like some songs on there |
