Hall of Fame, huh? That's a nice pipe dream, but I knew deep down I was just a flash in the pan, a one-hit wonder - kinda like that song "Wild Thing" by Al Wilson, which totally rocks, by the way

Yeah, well, I was a bit of a rebellious spirit, even then. I always had a bit of a rebellious streak - I thought the best way to liven up the dullness of the off-season was to, you know, maybe pop a little white pill - but hey, nobody wants to be known as the guy who failed a drug test
