Swing your kicks.
You've got nothing to lose.
Swing them high,
Swing them sure,
swing them because there's nothing left to do.
Shut your mouth.
You can't say anything more.
You can't relive this,
But you can't get out the door.
There's nothing left to do, kid.
So just swing your kicks.

It wasn&#039;t said by me, but my favorite quote is: &quot;Critics are like eunuchs in a harem; they know how it&#039;s done, they&#039;ve seen it done every day, but they&#039;re unable to do it themselves.&quot; - Brendan Francis
