billy joel’s we didn’t start the fire reminds me of people who say all lives matter which reminds me of sam larkin’s stick around and play with you which reminds me of people blaming the victim which reminds me of liz phair’s divorce song which reminds me of people who say it takes two to tango which reminds me of the gato barbeiri’s soundtrack which reminds me of the abuse of maria schneider which reminds me of talking head’s paper which reminds me that contracts can be broken which reminds me of kanye west’s spaceship which reminds me of that fortune cookie i got one time eating with my parents at the original manadarin when it was on sergeant avenue and carmen worked there, “those who’re never gonna get there, spend their lives trying to find the methods to get there, while those who’ve bluntly seen where there actually is, understand the so-called methods quite, quite well, and have no excuse spending their lives on anything else,– other than for an excuse for not being there all the time.”
