ALIVE

Look, I really don't want to wax philosophic,
but I will say that if you're alive,
you got to flap your arms and legs,
you got to jump around a lot,
you got to make a lot of noise,
because life is the very opposite of death.
And therefore, as I see it, if you're quiet,
you're not living.
You've got to be noisy, or at least your thoughts
should be noisy and colorful and lively.
