Shirt

My shirt is a token and symbol, more than a cover for sun and rain, my shirt is a signal, and a teller of souls. I can take off my shirt and tear it, and so make a ripping razzly noise, and the people will say, "Look at him tear his shirt." I can keep my shirt on. I can stick around and sing like a little bird and look 'em all in the eye and never be fazed. I can keep my shirt on.
