d.: Hi, Cal.E., I fell asleep waiting for you to call to do our blog last night. I was trying to stay awake by watching the football game, but that got boring quickly. Why didn’t you call?
C.: Well, it’s like this d.c., I got caught up in my band and my performance last night…
d.: Oh, yes, how did that go? You look happy!
C.: Great, Let me text you the video that one of the audience members made of it.
Thank you, Greater Guy!
I want to bring a very special guest up on stage with me next. I’ve known Tucker, Tucker, Two for several years, but we’ve just recently become friends. Since he’s so good at everything else he does, I assume that he’s a great singer as well. Tucker come on up here and join me
Tucker: Thank ya, Thank ya, Thank ya very much. For my first number, I’d like to bring back a classic.
Bright light city gonna set my soul Gonna set my soul on fire Got a whole lot of money that's ready to burn So get those stakes up higher
There's a thousand pretty women waitin' out there And they're all livin' the devil may care And I'm just the devil with love to spare, so Viva Las Vegas, Viva Las Vegas
How I wish that there were more Than the twenty-four hours in the day Even if there were forty more I wouldn't sleep a minute away
Oh, there's black jack and poker and the roulette wheel A fortune won and lost on ev'ry deal All you need's a strong heart and a nerve of steel Viva Las Vegas, Viva Las Vegas
Viva Las Vegas with your neon flashin' And your one arm bandits crashin' All those hopes down the drain Viva Las Vegas turnin' day into nighttime Turnin' night into daytime If you see it once You'll never be the same again
I'm gonna keep on the run I'm gonna have me some fun If it costs me my very last dime If I wind up broke, oh well I'll always remember that I had a swingin' time
I'm gonna give it ev'rything I've got Lady luck please let the dice stay hot Let me shoot a seven with ev'ry shot, ah Viva Las Vegas, Viva Las Vegas Viva Las Vegas, Viva, Viva Las Vegas

And now, for my last number, I want to slow it down a bit…
And now the end is here And so I face that final curtain My friend I'll make it clear I'll state my case, of which I'm certain I've lived a life that's full I traveled each and every highway And more, much more I did it, I did it my way
Regrets, I've had a few But then again too few to mention I did what I had to do I saw it through without exemption I planned each charted course Each careful step along the byway And more, much, much more I did it, I did it my way
Yes, there were times I'm sure you knew When I bit off more than I could chew But through it all, when there was doubt I ate it up and spit it out I faced it all and I stood tall and did it my way
For what is a man, what has he got? If not himself then he has naught Not to say the things that he truly feels And not the words of someone who kneels Let the record shows I took all the blows and did it my way

C.: And then, we talked until the sun came up. I need to get some sleep now, d.c., so I’ll talk to you tomorrow, d.c.
