- How much time we got?

- Take two, cue Howard.

- I don't have to tell you things are bad, everybody knows things are bad. It's a depression. Everybody's out of work or scared of losing their job.

- The dollar buys a nickel's worth. Banks are going bust.

- Shopkeepers keep a gun under the counter. Punks are running wild in the streets. There's nobody anywhere who seems to know what to do, and there's no end to it.

- We know things are bad. Worse than bad, they're crazy.

- It's like everything everywhere is going crazy, so we don't go out anymore. We sit in the house and slowly the world we're living in is getting smaller and all we say is: Please, at least leave us alone in our living rooms!

- Let me have my toaster and my TV, and my steel-belted radials and I won't say anything. Just leave us alone!
