Oh, Duffy's tellin' what he'll eat me tea-dodgy to manage his bacon-duffy ain't here. Oh, oh, Duffy, beautiful night, huh? Yeah, I'd like to feel like more of an... Yes, wasn't it delightful today? Yeah, old sounds sure felt great.

Hey, says the sun helps his arthritis. Mm-hmm. Today I've seen a robin. And this morning, Duffy, I've seen a first uranium peeping out from behind the air of the a junk man's horse. That reminds me, Duffy, I gotta get some no clothes.

Well, it traces gobbed and no leaves. The flowers is gobbed and no petals. Everything has no garbage except me. What? Duffy on 15 bucks a week, I couldn't even make one end me. Make me, when I tell people what I make, they lay up at me.
