:33:03
Everybody else was doing it, too.
:33:11
They were all putting me down,
like I was a Negro.

:33:19
All I did was run around
buying beer and sandwiches

:33:26
and sweep out their damn darkroom,
so I quit.

:33:29
Now I don't work at all.
:33:33
In school you didn't know
if your father and his pals

:33:39
were boozing when you got home.
:33:46
He might be smashed
and want to fight.

:33:54
When you took your buddies home,
you saw how it looked in the window.

:34:04
Or you heard a little from the street,
'cause we lived on the bottom.

:34:11
Then you listened in the hallway,
if it was quiet you went in.

:34:20
I never got a key until he died.
:34:25
So you saw how he looked
and maybe he'd start fighting.

:34:30
Once he left two bits on the table
for me as an allowance.

:34:34
It was a Friday.
:34:37
When I got home I took it
and bought some candy.

:34:43
Yeah, and when I was outside
he yelled: "Get up here!"

:34:51
I didn't understand
what the hell I'd done.

:34:54
When I got in, he asked me
why the hell I'd taken it.
