Lillian Quote #67
Quote from Lillian in Bill's New Gig
Bill: I can't keep getting in situations where I'm letting other people control my ideas. I should be doing my own thing.
Lillian: Then do it.
Bill: But [sighs] what if I can't? I don't have that big personality like Janice or that guy who replaced me in the old band.
Lillian: What? You have your own style. And if that doesn't work, I'll straighten your hair and get you a cape like James Brown.
Bill: [chuckles] So my dad can disown me? No thanks.
Lillian: Bill Williams, you are the coolest man I know.
Bill: I mean, I was... but how many cats actually know what's cool after their 20s?
Lillian: How many cats can write a song like this? [plays piano and sings] ♪ Every good day comes with sunshine ♪ ♪ But some days come with hard times ♪
Bill: [sings] ♪ You could stumble, you could fall ♪ ♪ Just keep smiling through it all ♪ ♪
