Here it is in Dennis' own words, from a December 1984 interview with Rockline!:
\"I used to do a little speech in front of \"Come Sail Away,\" a rap thing - and it was so well-received by people, they used to just come out after the show and if there was one thing they would mention about the show, it would be that little, motivational talk I gave on our dreams and how to accomplish them. It was so popular that I said, \"Whatever I'm saying here, I should probably try to find a way to put it into words.\" So I tried to do that with that song.\"
