Coach Hacker: I give. I'm not cut out to be a songwriter. Frazz: Most people aren't. But I can't let you quit now. Coach Hacker: You can't?

Hey, I got a friend who really can’t spell, So of course he wants to write a bookThey all wanna do what they can’t do well….And I wish that dreams were all it took.
Please please, don’t drag me inIt’s hard to see where I’d begin.Please please, don’t look at me,I just can’t change reality
So here’s a guy who just can’t rhyme,Wants to write a country tune…Well, it ain’t my dream and I ain’t got time,For throwing apples at the moon.
Please please, don’t drag me inI don’t know where I’d begin.Please please, don’t look at me,I just can’t change reality
