The Story of an Artist Lyrics

Lyric discussion by twee! 

Cover art for The Story of an Artist lyrics by Daniel Johnston

i tried to find out what the two people were saying in the intro. if anyone has any idea i'd really like to know what they're saying or what they were talking about. "it's like" "what? what?" "i-i i don't know" "what's in this room?" or "was it this room?" it's probably neither and i can't really hear it clearly. "it's like when you go to read your own poetry you get all choked up."
