So this is your petition against my sole foundation?
It seems your tradition is at war with my innovation
Fine sir, I will respect your opinion, but with all due respect
I will pay no attention to your rules. They're not for me.
They exist only for the bored and uninspired beorgeoisie.
You speak of this fashion like a frivolous pretension
And there's one thing I can tell you: its never been my intention
To adapt my art to fit your needs. See?
I'd rather die a pauper full of sickness and disease
