:28:10
Why do you make
such a crazy show of yourself?
:28:13
'Cause I'm an exhibitionist.
:28:17
I want people to know I'm alive.
Don't you want people to know you're alive?
:28:21
I just want to live. I don't care
whether they know I'm alive or not.
:28:24
Well, I want to be noticed,
and seen, and heard, and felt.
:28:33
I used to be what they call...
:28:36
a church-bitten reformer.
:28:39
You know what that means?
:28:42
Well, that's a kind of benign exhibitionist.
:28:46
I used to make stump speeches.
:28:51
And I wrote letters of protest against...
:28:55
the gradual massacre
of the colored majority in the county.
:28:59
And you know, when that
Willie McCoy thing came along...
:29:03
Poor man got sent to the chair, you know...
:29:05
for having improper relations
with a white slut.
:29:09
I made a fuss about that.
:29:14
I put on a potato sack...
:29:17
and I set out on foot for the capitol.
:29:19
And you know how far I got?
Six miles out of town.
:29:25
I was hooted and jeered at
and even spit on every step of the way.
:29:30
Then I got arrested.
:29:33
And you know what for?
:29:35
Lewd vagrancy.
:29:40
Oh, me! That was a long time ago.
:29:44
And I'm not a reformer anymore.
:29:47
I'm just a lewd vagrant.
:29:53
And I'm gonna show them.
:29:55
And show them all
just how lewd, a lewd vagrant can be...
:29:59
when she puts her whole heart into it,
the way I do mine.
