She messed around with the bloke named Smokey. She loved him, though he was cokie
0:06
He took her down to Tyre Town, showed her how to kick that gong around
0:13
Showed her how to kick that gong around. Hody, hody, ha! Hody, hody, hody, ho! Hody, hody, ho
0:23
Skidda rinky, dink, ho! Hody, hody, ho! Someday I'll wish upon a star and wake up where the clouds are far behind me
0:39
Where troubles melt like lemon drips, away above the chimney tops, that's where you'll
0:50
You'll find me somewhere over the rainbow, bluebirds fly
1:05
Are there wild trees in the heart of town? Can you hear a bark in any other part of town
1:15
Does enchantment pour out of every door? No it just on the street where you live Some enchanted evening when you find your true love when you hear her call you her cries
1:44
up round the moon, then fly to her side and make her your own, or all through your life
2:04
You may dream on yours own Two drifters, all to see the world
2:20
There's such a lot of world to see Give my honey a crew of soon
3:16
Honeymoon, he will shine in June Your silvery beams will bring long streams
3:26
We'll be guddling soon By the silvery moon Your silvery beams will bring long streams
3:36
We'll be guddling soon By the Silvery Blue

There's so much talk about accepting diversity. We know that diversity is what built our country
3:56
is what makes our country great. of color, of sexuality, of class, but perhaps most important is the exquisite diversity
4:14
of the human mind. I am proud, indeed blessed, to be an artist and to have worked for 42
4:22
years shoulder to shoulder with other artists So I will end with something that my nephew Kalen wrote Now Kalen had his first psychotic break when he was 19
4:35
He spent two years in a psychiatric hospital. He emerged with a diagnosis of schizoaffective disorder
4:42
the cruelest combination of thought and mood disorder. Art has always been my passion
4:50
The urge to create has always influenced me to focus. What I have gathered through years of experience is that I am always at a crux
5:02
I always have to walk a think line. Too far to one side means insanity
5:08
The other, complacency and ignorance. I think there are many who know what I say and who would agree
5:16
To master our minds is to master our worlds. Art is my outlet to relax and concentrate
5:25
At the same time, for me, the ability to satisfy my perfectionism is the creation of something solid and beautiful from something very intangible
5:38
Whatever that creation is, I say, is art. Thank you for being here tonight
