Maybe it was the sheer embarrassment

that kept me conscious and standing as I

Spoken Outro: D (jam)
It's true, I fell.
And I hit my . . . my head, you know.
I mean my head . . . my ankle, my ankle was black
But my head got a concussion.
They took x-rays and . . .
I asked the doctor . . . if he could tell whether I was . . .
I don't speak Japanese so . . .
