Hitchhiking Out of Teslin

Hitchhiking out of Teslin
Gary,
 Gary, 
Gary
 I could have been somebody Gary.
 I was going to law school Gary. 
Why do you smoke weed Gary? 
It makes you stupid Gary,
 Do you want to go through life being stupid Gary?
 Gary hunched down like he was being physically pummelled, he looked right, left, right again. Trapped. 
He was driving, she shotgun, kid in the middle.
 I yell from the back seat,
 Garry,
 Garry,
 Garry,
Put your foot into it Gary!
