[Desire ends] Bono: "Thank you, thank you! Desire... greed... lust... showy-offiness... deceit... vanity – all the essentials for a showman like myself. And a licence... to just look... in the mirror. Oh yeah." [approaches iPad on a stand; sees a devilish face superimposed over his own image] Crowd: [whoops and screams] MacPhisto: "Very... revealing!" [sniggers, then inhales admiringly] "Oooh! Age... can bring a spot..." [points to lesion on his cheek] "...of bother!" [sniggers] "Is there a dermatologist in the house?" [sniggers] "My name... is Mr MacPhisto." Crowd: [cheer] MacPhisto: [chuckles] "I'm having somewhat of a comeback." [sniggers] "You know? People spying on themselves with their own telephones." [chuckles] "And the Cold War, warming up again. Lunatics on the LEFT... lunatics on the RIGHT!" [evil laugh] Crowd: [whoops] MacPhisto: "Children... dealing... with dangerous... weapons. Oh, Donald!" [laughs] "I almost choked up, seeing you out there with the rocket boy." [chuckles] "Best of friends! You kids really do love your rockets, don't you?" [sniggers] Crowd: [laughter and applause] MacPhisto: "Children just don't like to give up their toys. Now, Philadelphia?" Crowd: [cheer] MacPhisto: "It's when you don't believe I exist – that's when I do... my best work." [sniggers] [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 ENEMYYY! Haaa! Uhh! Haaa!" |
