A Familiar Place



The Needle tears a hole;
The old, Familiar sting --



The Road is Long,

We carry on,

Familiar by My Side




Charlie :
....are YOU so afraid,
Are You So Afraid; of THAT,
That that's got Your MIND locked-up...?


Dianne Sawyer :
No, I'm so -- I don't 
understand

Charlie :
Go over to The Morgue
Look at all them Dead People.

Dianne Sawyer :
....just EXPLAIN to Me
though -- (I'm not dumb.)

EXPLAIN to Me, simply : 
Why THAT House, 
THAT Night?


Charlie :
WHICH House, 
WHICH Night...?


Dianne Sawyer :
The House on Ceillo Drive
The Tate House,
WHY Did They Go THERE...?


Charlie :
....because Tex 
had been there before --
and he went to 
a familiar place.


Dianne Sawyer :
But What Did They Think 
They were Doing for You....?

Charlie :
....they weren't 
doin' anything for Me...!


Dianne Sawyer :
What Did They THINK 
They were Doing for You...?



Charlie :
Now, wait a minute -- 
Criminal Behaviour is... It's The SAME
it's mundane, in most minds -- 

Criminal'll always go to a familiar place;
Tex had been to that house
Tex went back to that house.



Here's The Conversation : Indian Mesa.


We had a big Problem 
that came up --
I had to shoot 
somebody for Tex;
Bobby's in The Prison -- 
MY Brother's in Jail.

Now, understand MY Mind :
All My Life, I've 
been in Jail because 
I didn't have nobody 
to get Me OUT of Jail --

I didn't have no 
brother on The Outside --

So I spent years and years and 
years and years just because -- 
nobody would come and 
Sign Their Name 
to get Me out of Jail
and The Jail couldn't let Me out,
'coz I didn't have 
no Money, had no 
place to GO....!

So I spent 22 Years in Jail because 
I didn't have nobody 
on The Outside --

I can't let somebody 
who's with Me stay in JAIL..!!

It's just NOT 
in My MAKE-UP!;
I gotta get MY Brother 
out of JAIL, Man!!



IF ---

(...and that's a big Word
because I don't hardly-ever 
use those kinda Words, 
like "If", or "Maybe"; 
I'm not insecure about anything -- )

BUT, IF -- 
You have A Thought
in Your Mind
about what I'm Thinking -- 
is that 
What I'm Thinking; or, 
What You're Thinking 
I'm Thinking...?


Everyone Says,
(Booming Anti-Dad Voice
"WE KNOW WHAT YOU 
WERE DOING WITH ALL 
THOSE WOMEN."

I Said, "No -- 
You Know What YOU 
Would Have Been Doing 
with All Those Women
and You Think 
That's What I Was Doing 
with All Those Women, because 
‘That's What I NEED to Think’.", Now --  





You Are, You're Faith;
Loose it -- and You're NOT.
