MacPhisto: "Ohh... ohhh..." MacPhisto: [sings] "Even the greatest stars... discover themself in the looking glass..." [approaches iPad on a stand; sees a devilish face superimposed over his own image] "Even the greatest stars..." Crowd: [whoops and whistles] MacPhisto: "Bonjour, Paris! Je suis Monsieur MacPhisto à votre service." [bows] Crowd: [cheers and applause] MacPhisto: "So... what has my favourite little cabbage, Bo-no, been up to here in beautiful gay Paris? My little... chou – shoo!" Crowd: [laughter] MacPhisto: "The Eiffel Tower? Oh, no. The Mona Lisa? No. The pompous little prick went to the Élysée Palace to see the... second most important man in France – Monsieur le Président." Crowd: [laughter] MacPhisto: "And they had... a little tête-à-tête. Europe – blah, blah. Africa – blah, blah. Neighbours – blah, blah. 'Love thy neighbour'! I can't stand it – makes me want to fucking retch. 'Love thy neighbour'?" [evil laugh] Crowd: [laughter, whoops and whistles] MacPhisto: "Like... like it's a command, and not some optional advice? Well, let me set you right, Bo-no. We may be neighbours, but we're not going to share our garden. It's quiet, and tidy, and that is the way we like it. Wave across the wall, Africa!" [chuckles] "'Cos when you don't believe – mm! – 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! Haaa!" |
