[Spoken]
After, you know, all these months and months of touring and playing and performing
Nobody got paid
I didn't get paid, I couldn't pay the band
There was nothing to show for it
With my first record contract, I gave up my publishing, I gave up my copyrights, I gave up my record royalties
Everything but my first-born child, I think
Just signed it all away
And that's kinda par for the course of the music business back in those days
