It's Brock's jacket!
Puffy jacket bulletproof jacket
Track jacket woolen jacket
Flight jacket Favorite jacket steele jacket

You are the coats we wear
of Devil's plaid and Witch's hair
Jackets are everywhere
With a hood or a belt or a sleeveless one Doesn't count that's a vest called a Jerkin'

Doesn't count that's a vest called a Jerkin'




Uh!

I love how Orpheus is always so willing to do weird shit like wear a track suit or pretend to be a European emissary. You know rusty wasn't going to let him slack on the rent for being in the video. He seemed like a genuinely nice guy, and I hope things worked out ok for him.
