Don Shirley : So where did this "Tony the Lip" moniker come from? Tony Lip : [laughs] It's not "Tony the Lip", it's "Tony Lip". One word. I got it when I was a kid 'cause my friends said I was the best bullshit artist in the Bronx. [Chuckles] Don Shirley : [Horrified] Why are you smiling? Tony Lip : What do you mean? Don Shirley : It doesn't bother you that your friends – the people closest to you – consider you a liar? Tony Lip : Who said liar? I said bullshit artist! Don Shirley : And what's the difference? Tony Lip : 'Cause I don't lie! Ever! I'm just good at talkin' people into... y'know, doin' things they don't wanna do... By bullshittin' 'em. [Grins] Don Shirley : And you're proud of that? Tony Lip : Well, it got me this job.
