interview copyright 1999 bryan paul thomas/radical plastical music (bmi). cranky elevator twenty-second floor. fourth wall fourth estater slip inside the door. lisa. l-l-l-lisa. she could ask me anything. i'd answer anything. but she ain't saying nuthin. it's her scoop it's her exclusive. but she just stares at elevator buttons. kurt would not kick quiet. tabby would talk to me too. darling don't deny it - you want this interview. cuz phillip had his marlo janey her trudeau maria had her arnold so let's begin our show. if she ain't gon talk i can pretend. so i pretend she starts to speak to me. she say: 'are you vee-ache-none or empty-vee? are you the crossover king? do the comparisons all make you wince seal d'angelo former prince. prince you say? i dig him too. he's the one i really want to interview. i mean other than you.' maybe she'd put down her notebook. maybe she'd lean in closer. maybe she'd touch my shoulder. and maybe she would start to say: 'do you do it all alone? do you do it on the phone? do you like to play with toys? do you like girls or boys? if we can not meet up later we can do it right here in the elevator. do you have a girlfriend? do you want a girlfriend? do you need a girlfriend? do you want me to be your girlfriend? maybe media can imitate life tonite.' (here come the reality check...) i say, 'don't mean to trouble you i'm just looking for a job. i'm just looking for mister double yoo.' so she say: 'am i gonna have to call the cops?' lisa when this dog's day come not tabby neither kurt. lisa when fifteen fame come you will hear it first. notes. what does a struggling young musician do when trapped in an elevator with a rock journalist? why he begins to fantasize of course. kickin' the walter mitty. plays out the interview in his head. and, if said journalist is a little easy-on-the-eyes, the fantasy might go somewhere else, too. but no fear: she'll give him a verbal ass-paddling in the end. a true story? i'll never tell. all stuff copyright 1999 bryan thomas & wt3 records bryanthomas.com
