MacPhisto: "Off with the horns, on with the show. Look what you've done to me! You've made me very famous, and I thank you." Crowd: [applause] MacPhisto: "I'd like to introduce you to my band. On my right here, known to his friends as Reggie the Dog... The Edge. Sitting behind the drum kit, a man who could put Bruce Springsteen out of a job – Larry Mullen Junior. And on my left, a man with a ginormous willy – Adam Clayton!" Crowd: [cheers and applause] MacPhisto: "But it's not as big as my one. No – ha ha!" Crowd: [laughter] MacPhisto: "Round about this time at night, I often make a telephone call. Sometimes to the President of the United States. But not tonight. I'm calling a taxi to take me home." Crowd: [boo] MacPhisto: "Don't get me wrong, I love you! But I love myself also. And I'm very tired. I am, after all, the last pop star." [dials] [phone rings for some time] MacPhisto: "Oh, do hurry up." [phone continues to ring] MacPhisto: [pretends to check his watch] "Time flies when you're having a good time, doesn't it? My heavens." MacPhisto: [sings] "Laaa da daaa da-da daaa..." Man: "Taxis Verts, goedenavond." MacPhisto: "Hello, excuse me, do you speak English?" Man: "Yeah, a little." MacPhisto: "Thank you ve-- you're very good, I really appreciate that. I'm Irish myself." [clears throat] "I'd like to order a taxi to take me home." Man: "Yes. Where you are?" MacPhisto: "I'm, I'm at, erm... well actually, I'm everywhere. My name is MacPhisto." Man: "Yeah...?" MacPhisto: "And I know you very well." Man: "Yeah...?" MacPhisto: "I know you probably even better than you know yourself." Man: "Where are you?" MacPhisto: "...Uh, I beg your pardon? How dare you speak to me like that." Man: "WHERE ARE YOU?" MacPhisto: "Do you know who you're talking to?!" Man: "Whe--" MacPhisto: "Do you know who you're talking to?" [Ultra Violet begins] |
