It's A Pleasure To Work

You're Never Going To See Me Playing A Buffoon.

I Don't Care About How I Look; I'm Dedicated To The Laughs. You Know, I Used To Be A Clown, So - My Name Was Smoothie The Clown. All The Training I Had, All My Training Is Geared Toward Making People Laugh, And I Didn't Care About Being Cool.

I Hate To Let People Down. I Was Like That In Sports And I Was Like That In Comedy. I Was Like That At Work. When I Worked General Motors And Stuff Like That, When I Say Something, I Mean It.

I Was In Love With A Lot Of People, Because I Was A Student Of The Game Of Comedy - Carol Burnett, Jack Benny, Red Skelton, Jackie Gleason, Don Rickles, Red Foxx, Moms Mabley - Who Gets No Credit, Richard Pryor, Bill Cosby, George Kirby. I Loved Them All, And I Used To Just Take A Page Out Of All Of Them.

As I Got Older, I Got Into All Kinds Of Things In The Streets - But For Some Reason, I Never Got Caught Up With The Gangs Growing Up. Everybody Dug Me, Man. I Never Had Problems.
