dedalus Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 I cannot live in this life in the shadow of me ma and da, if it’s only for the shame of it; I’ve no wish in the world to get married to some clappety eejit from the bank or some chap in a solid company stroking his silly moustache. I’d rather run off to Arabia or race away to India and get caught up with one of them dusky princes. I spend a lot of time at the films, I do, my job is to play at the piano, to fit the music to what the actors be doing, and I’m awfully good at it. I love England, actually I don’t, this country gives me a headache. I wish I was away somewhere, far away on a romantic wonderful weekend with some marvellous, marvellous man and me ma says that will never happen. Watch out for sweet-talking men, she says, they be only out for the wan thing. Jesus Christ, ma, so am I!
