She came from Greece, she had a thirst for knowledge. She studied sculpture at Saint Martin's College. That's where I caught her eye. She told me that her Dad was loaded. I said, in that case I'll have [bad word] and coca-cola. She said fine, and in thirty seconds time she said, I want to live [bad word] people. I want to do [bad word] people do. I want to sleep [bad word] people. I want to sleep [bad word] people, like you. Well, what else could I do? I said, I'll see what I can do. I took her to a supermarket. I don't know why, but I had to start it somewhere, so it started there. I said, pretend you've got no money. She just laughed, and said oh you're so funny. I said, yeah? Well, I can't see anyone else smiling in here. Are you sure you want to live [bad word] people? You want to see [bad word] people see? You want to sleep [bad word] people? You want to sleep [bad word] people, like me? But, she didn't understand, (Jackson) She just smiled and held my hand. Rent a flat above a shop. Cut your hair and get a job. Smoke some [bad word] and play some pool. Pretend you never went to school. But still, you'll never get it right. When you're lying in bed at night watching roaches climb the wall, if you called your Dad he could stop it all. Yeah.
