Bobby Goosey, WHATEVER WHEREVER

 

Bobby Lee Goosey

Whatever Wherever

 

--You know where we’re headed? You know where we’re going? You know where we’re bound? Know where?

--No, where? You know where?

--Yes. I know where we’re headed and I know where we’re bound and I know where we’re going. You don’t know where?

--No, where? . . . Oh, there . . . Nowhere . . . Well, anyway, I hope we all like it when we get there. It might be a wonderful place, Nowhere. Yes, I think it might be just fine. It doesn’t have to be anywhere to be nice, does it? I believe I’ll like being there . . . or nonbeing . . .
