([Spoken:] The preceding has been put here on tape, to let
you all know that I say it to her because I love her,
Can you dig it? Can you get to that? Even when she's messing around
He likes having her around even when she's messing around,
which is very of"t"en, that' what she's doing, the motion
...when she's messing around)
