and... uhh... we went down there
anyway... the two of us
and... uhh... he talked about you know
Shane had committed
I listened to all this... and... uhh
and I said, "What do you
want to do about it?"
and he said, "Well, I'd prefer if
Shane didn't come back next term."
I said, "Fine, you know,
I don't want him to come back
to this stupid, f***ing
c*nt of a place, anyway. " you know?
that was more or less how it ended
and I went off
do you want to go back and
see your old teacher?
what do I want to... Spellman?
no I don't think I have to
my dad did a pretty good job in there
I think he's probably exiled himself
to somewhere far away... you know?
well I think he had him up...
up on the... f***ing thrown against
the wall... you know?
you know shouting and cursing
and being a racist prick you know
I mean he had a happy childhood
I mean uhh... the education
didn't spoil that in any way
he just didn't contribute to his
development in any way
we got on basically that
I got kicked out of school
because I was such an outrageous
little turd in England... right?
a complete scumbag
right... you know what I mean?
the more time I spent
in England right... yeah?
right... yeah... you know what I mean?
yeah? like... from being a decent person
yeah... like uhh... you'd notice it
tell us about uhh... falling in love...
where'd you meet?
in a pub
why did I ask that question. . .
why did I ask that question
his best friend was a friend of mine
- Spider the tin whistle player
- oh I tell ya
and it was because of him
that we kept meeting
and then there was one day
I just looked at him and saw beauty
where before I'd seen hideous
-arrogance and...
- obnoxiousticity
I think he's such a strong personality
and has such a sense of... he's so spirited
and he has so much a sense of adventure
and so much fearlessness around
um... around doing things in public
doing things like going on stage
starting bands
and getting into all kinds of trouble
things that I wouldn't have
had the nerve to do myself
that's... that's what I find so appealing is
that you know... umm...
the sheer nerve...
and the... and the exuberance...
and the imagination
what makes you happy?
you do
how do I make you happy?
it can't be explained in words... you know
maybe in Irish it could be... you know?
it's a larger vocabulary... you know? like
- hmm?
- anything?
can we go in there?
hey... look at this... this bike
this is uhh... a fifty pound
bag for a junkie... right?
all he needs is a hacksaw... right?
take that bike up sell it tomorrow
