| Oh, so this guy named Mikey
|
| He tells me, Will, you’re not gonna get to far unless you learn your musical
|
| theory
|
| You’re Bill Evans, you’re Charlie Parker
|
| «Peter Parker? |
| I know Spiderman», I said
|
| He shook his head at the gig and said, play the chords
|
| And I was like «the what? |
| All I know is numbers
|
| Two plus two is four, three plus three is six
|
| Oh what? |
| Oh you learned something about that?»
|
| So yeah, he kept pushing me, push, push, push
|
| Like a push pop, I love push pops, I love lollies
|
| But seriously, I’m not gonna learn that stuff I have no idea what i’m doing
|
| because
|
| (I don’t care)
|
| Because I don’t care
|
| (I don’t care)
|
| You can tell me to go to Monash, but
|
| (I don’t care)
|
| You should probably go to VCA world, Box Hill
|
| (I don’t care)
|
| Learn your theory, I don’t want to
|
| How dare that Billy Davis do music
|
| And not learn how to read or know what chords are
|
| True, yeah
|
| Anyway, I just kept chugging along
|
| And I got the opportunity, um, to play
|
| Other people’s' songs
|
| Multiple times a week
|
| No thanks, like thats cool, but
|
| I’ve done a bit of writing and all that stuff and I thought
|
| Like maybe I could take my writing and produce
|
| And make my own music
|
| What do you mean that’s not cool?
|
| (I don’t care)
|
| So, it’s better to play other people’s songs?
|
| (I don’t care)
|
| But I d-d-d-d-d-don't care
|
| (I don’t care)
|
| Practise is always fun, but come on
|
| (I don’t care) |
