This land is your land and this land is my land, sure, but the world is run by those that never listen to music anyway. People today are still living off the table scraps of the sixties. They are still being passed around - the music and the ideas.

Even in the best chess club-and they got women in there. It's a social place and people are making noise, it's a madhouse.
