[Hook:]
And the club is thick tell her flip the switch When I'm her then it all goes down. Heres ya cup baby take a sip
Tell the waitress bring another round.

Very inspiring! As one dealing with MS and its limitations. I am learning to change my perspectives and am inspired but how what was a limitation has become a strength. I love his concept of being the "box" helps get you out of the "box"

What an inspiring artist. Glad he embraced his limitations. Never be afraid to think outside the box
