Inhibition, well, you can fly
Out the window to the clear blue sky
It will mess your suit, it will make you cry
It doesn't matter, give me Mumdane pie

Re: The Pirahã
Any day you like. Do not use past tense. If you want to talk about something in the past, start with "I (will) tell you a story..."
They do have a word for will, maybe just "I now speak story."
