leroy had the craziest
dreams and ideas,
never lacked ideas,
thats for sure
he didn’t go anywhere
in life but it
wasn’t due to lack
of ideas
no thats for sure
like one day we
were walking
we walked a lot
we didn’t have
cars most the time
and the times we
did we couldn’t
afford the gas
so we walked a lot
and one day we
were walking
and were talking
cuz that’s what we did
when we didn’t have
a car, we’d pass
the time by
walking and
talking
so leroy tells me
he’s come up with an idea,
see, he was full of them
i said, leroy, what’s your
idea and he told me.
“he said you know what we could
do?”
“what leroy?” i asked.
“we could record people in the
bathroom.”
“what?” i replied.
“yeah, we could record people in
the bathroom” he said, “we could
record them taking pisses and shits,
and whatever else they do in there”
i stopped walking for a second.
“leroy. why would we do that?”
“so we can record them, he said.”
“i get that, leroy, but, leroy, why would we want to do
that?” i asked
“so we could sell the tapes,” he said.
“to who?” i asked.
“i don’t know, to whatever sicko would by the
damn tapes”
“umm, leroy, do you think people would buy
something like that?”
“yes, yes i do,” he said.
“my grandpa always told me that one mans
shit is another mans treasure”
“i’m pretty sure you didn’t hear him right,
leroy”
he had lots of ideas,
that ol’ leroy.
