[Desire ends] Bono: "Desire... greed... lust... deceit... vanity – all the essentials for a showman in all his forms. And of course a licence... to just look... in the mirror." [approaches iPad on a stand; his "reflection" is shown on the big screen] "Oh, I haven't seen this guy... in quite a while." [sees a devilish face superimposed over his own image] MacPhisto: [admiringly] "Oh!" Crowd: [laughter and screams] MacPhisto: "Ohh. Age brings... beauty! And a spot of... bother. Ha! Ohh... is there a dermatologist in the house? [inaudible]" [turns head to inspect a lesion on his cheek] "Is that a slight... blemish I see?" Crowd: [laughter and cheers] MacPhisto: "I've been a busy little devil. Oh yes. But you've made it all so much easier for me these days. I told Stalin that one day, people would bug themselves! Yes..." [evil chuckle] "Oh yes, and here we are. The truth is dead, and the KKK are out on the streets of Charlottesville without their silly costumes! Ha ha – who'd have thought?! Ohh... Tulsa... Tulsa. When you don't believe that I exist, that's... when I do... my best work." [Acrobat begins] MacPhisto: "Don't believe what you hear. Don't believe what you see. If you just close your eyes... you can feel the enemy!" [evil laughter] |
