Life Would Be Better

If I could complain about things with Joe Strummer's voice. My voice just isn't suited to complaints, either justified or trivial.

For example, if my pizza was cold I could say, "Excuse me Mr. Waiter, my pizza is cold." In my Midwestern voice, it sounds . . . whiney. And Pizzaman would probably take care of my needs, but make fun of me behind my back.

But if I could say it with Joe Strummer's voice, he'd jump to help me. He'd go in back and say, "Dude, don't fuck with table 13. That guy is serious."

I know, it's a stupid wish, especially considering Joe's iconic stature. But he's dead. He's not using his voice for anything. It'd be a shame to let it go to waste.

    I imagine Jerry Lewis's voice might work as well
