Is anybody object [B] if we take our jackets off at this point?
Oh, [N] I see no one else asked permission.
That's the way our band rolls.
I shouldn't say rolls, it's not really a verb I should use, but
everyone else always takes their jacket off before band protocol is allowed.
I'm the only one who asked permission from the audience.
Everyone else just goes ahead and strips off when they want.
And that's their prerogative.
What can I do about it?
Nothing is the answer.
I don't know why I'm talking about this or telling you our inner band politics.
But we're going to have a big fight about this afterwards.

This is a song that we have mixed feelings towards.
Two of us love [Abm] it and two of us think it's terrible.
[C] And I'm not going to tell you which two think what.
