And then leave me in peace. | ''I suppose I should be grateful to still be alive at this point, but honestly couldn't they make some kind of little metal man to shovel the coal?

I'll make sure they both stay lit of course. Make sure the little metal men are keeping up their work and all. | ''I'll make sure they both stay lit of course. Make sure the little metal men are keeping up their work and all.'' | ||
