THE BURGERLESS, SCOOTERLESS BLOG

There are probably a couple of dozen that I would place above the opening lyrics to T Bone Burnett’s Trap Door, but years after I stopped listening to popular music, this one still stays with me.

“It’s a funny thing about humility/As soon as you know you’re being humble/You’re no longer humble/It’s a funny thing about life/You’ve got to give up your life to be alive/You’ve got to suffer to know compassion/You can’t want nothing if you want satisfaction”
