THE ADVICE OF THE ARCH-ANGEL MATTHEW · TO THE
KENSINGTONIANS
A bunch of trouble waiting to happen
Chapter 4
aThe problem is that there are still a lot of teachers who tell lies,
2Which is their job, after all,
3But there are some things you should know before you commit yourself to doing things that are against your nature in any way.
4The part about being respected is a good case in point; that’s just not going to happen,
5bEver,
6Which isn’t your fault exactly,
7But it’s the way things worked out.
8Let me speak frankly about this.
9Everybody in the world has already made up their mind about you,
10And what they’ve decided is that you’re no damned good at all,
11To anybody.
