Well, now you are talking about Slaughterhouse Five. I became disillusioned with Vonnegut as the years went on. Watching him sell out to Rodney Dangerfield in "Back to School" made me realize that Kurt was just a money-chasing guy no better than Jerry Rubin, to pick a name out of the hat.

He is living in East Hampton and you and I are walking those same dirty streets every day. Dirty old town,

I met my love by the gas works wall
Dreamed a dream by the old canal
Kissed a girl by the factory wall
Dirty old town
Dirty old town

Clouds a drifting across the moon
Cats a prowling on their beat
Spring's a girl in the street at night
Dirty old town
Dirty old town

Heard a siren from the docks
Saw a train set the night on fire
Smelled the spring on the smoky wind
Dirty old town
Dirty old town

I'm going to make me a good sharp axe
Shining steel tempered in the fire
Will chop you down like an old dead tree
Dirty old town
Dirty old town

I met my love by the gas works wall
Dreamed a dream by the old canal
Kissed a girl by the factory wall
Dirty old town
Dirty old town

You know what? Boots Springstein can kiss my ass as well. I can't even get in the IT IPO. Kurt and Bruce probably can, but us? Funk dem. My leather jacket is far cooler than the one Boots has and Vonnegut relies on his wife for an income.

Yeah, that's the ticket. Morgan Fairchild.
