David Bowie, I Have Not Been To Oxford Town
Having observed me stagger into the table, the ever kind detective barked
"What are ya, drunk?! Get ahold of yourself, man!"
"Fuck, I aint drunk! Just fine an' dandy. Hey, ol' man, what was that ya were playing earlier? You got a new taste in music?"
'Maybe, what's it to you?'
"Hey, man, calm down, chillax, ya know! It's just... that tape, it freaked me out, is all. You know what it's like with me an' Ramona. I just, I... I need to tell ya somethin' "
Nathan kindly pulled a chair up for me, but naturally, I took a perch on the counter.
"Alright, tell me."
"Nathan, I... ya know when I saw Ramona...?"
The old detective replied, in a flat tone "go on..."
I honestly can't take him fuckin' seriously when he comes over all stern like that, so I assured him he didn't have to be like that, we're 'work colleagues', right?
He replied flatly "like what? I'm not doing anything?"
I sighed "I...I wasn't totally truthful"
And a revalation came over me.
"How about we go back to work? You're always saying I never do enough! This... thing, it doesn't matter, really!"
I leapt up to go, but the coldness in the voice of the old guy froze me.
"Leon, sit down."
I span 'round on my heel, and quickly blurted out
"When I saw Ramona, she was muttering somethin'. 'The enemy is fragile'. Over and over again she was whispering it. Don't ask me what it means, because I don't fucking know."
"Who is 'the enemy'?"
"I said I don't friggin' know!! You're the detective!"
"You're the one gettin' cuddly with her! Who do YOU think the enemy could be?"
"GETTIN' FUCKING 'CUDDLY'? FUCK YOU!!"
And I walked the fuck outta that place. Aint been back since.
Can't believe he said that. The bastard.
