additional dialogue in red from "got the blues for murder only" by lonnie johnson

"i don't care how sore they are,pick them up and put them down"
"if i could pick a few winners, i'd be all right."

"you pay for what i can do, not for what you can do."
worn with the heels the white fog in the hallway
jacques felt he had lost his way listening to the young marquis in a red bandana

"down in old mexico where folks run wild and free"

forever worn with the heels the white fog his white handkerchief the dried tears in the fifth he drawled you don't say that asian fellow the copper sun in the fifth race

"down in old mexico where folks run wild and free"
jacques looked down at the police putting the bodies of harold anderson and jackson johnson into a wagon.

a deeply committed rationalist, he assumed there was a good reason, at least in their own minds, why the two policemen carrying the stretchers were dressed as a clown and a gaucho.
the marquis continued. "i must say it sounds more jolly than anything, even chocolate cake with pistachio ice cream."

that malaysian fellow the copper sun yes i do say on the guardrail

on the guardrail on the outside rail the dried mud mister chan the dried raindrops no his brother the red sun in the fifth race
he put everything he had on the fifth race
"this horse was born to run this race."

mister chan nodded and lowered his binoculars
"don't mind me, old boy.'
like a razor like a razor the dried mustard like a razor i can't emphasize it enough on the inside of a thousand flies of a thousand flies the dried remains of a thousand flies

"do you listen to this nonsense all day?" jacques asked his mother.
"i'm afraid i don't care to be spoken of in the third person when i'm present," the marquis coldly informed jacques

and carlos saw that it wasn't really mister chan at all. meanwhile the horse who was born to win the race
you know, that korean chap

"yes, i know the fifth race is a sure thing, but which horse in the fifth race, eh?
his white handkerchief now faded to gray in the white fog the fizzling sun in the fifth row you don't say
i'm afraid i do say
madamoiselle tatanya is here sir, at the back door

he drawled his white handkerchief the only visible object in the
"but didn't you follow him to the window?"

"oh don't snap at him, jacques, he's only a child after all."
"you told me you moved like a shadow?"

"where a child will slap your face
they make tea with chili pepper
and use gunpowder to kill the taste"

he drawled of a thousand bribes he drawed a face on the sidewalk with green chalk in the white fog
"emperor or beggar or monk they are all like to me."

"naturally i am delighted to see her. have her come to the front door."
"number two horse win, mister chan happy, mister sing not so happy."
'where they use rattlesnakes for bodyguards

and wildcats watch over them all night long"

"tatanya, how nice to see you, my dear. come in, come in, would you like a cigarette?' a drink?"

"always, but i'm afraid i'm not properly dressed."
"these people wouldn't know style if they were arrested and thrown in a river of it . danny, get tatanya a drink."
"how have you been, danny? still suffering from hallucinations?'
"it was hector who had hallucinations, mademoiselle. i suffer from dandridge;s syndrome."
"of course. excuse me, it's been a long time."
"indeed it has."
"this fellow has no manners. didn't you teach him any?"

"of course but he lost them in old mexico or outer mongolia or wherever he was running around with pancho villa and friedrich engels. "
"and how is that an excuse for poor manners?"
i'm going back to old mexico
with this long long reaching gun

chickie couldn't stand it any longer, watching through a crack in the door as callahan tried to chat up miss luna.

when they want real excitement
they kill each other one by one

"you had some excitement earlier? the police were here?"
they probably still are here."
"so this," thought samantha, "is the famous tatanya. she looks a bit old in her game."

"you see, jacques feels unappreciated for his heroic work as a revolutionary."

"how do you do."
"our love will get us off this island."

the fat man on the greyhound bus in the white fog
"just a couple of drifters who aspired to the glory of hooligans."
"you've sunk quite a bit into this fund, major.'

i'm going back to old shanghai
where they kill them both night and day
the sheriff locks up the empty jailhouse
and the judge goes home to pray

"what are you doing here, callahan?"

"still got those nicotine stains on your fingers, chickie?'
"they're custard pie stains."

callahan put his coffee cup down.
saddle and ride
because here in this country they don't kill them fast enough for me

the duke knew that samantha was just teasing

additional dialogue by allen toussaint, j t "funny paper" smith, merline "the yas yas girl" johnson, and sergio leone

"beautiful, isn't she?"

"haven't we been over this before? didn't we just have this conversation?
the duke put his hand on samantha's arm and steered her away from the center of the party to the little coffee table in front of the french windows. after samantha had made herself comfortable on the low divan, or maybe it was the high settee, they resumed their conversation in a more amiable manner.

in the center of the party, near the bar, harry and jake continued their heated argument.

"we sit here in club chairs, while a few hundred yards away, murder is being done for pennies - for a few grains of opium."
"but we aren't sitting in club chairs, harry, we are standing at the bar at the duke of r------------'s monthly get together, getting trashed."

"that's true, that's true. a great distinction. you know, i think i've had too much to drink."
"me too. let's get some fresh air."
harry looked around. "is there any?"

"let's get some outside air. outside."
"that's where the air is,"
samantha fingered the little green pincushion doll with the hong kong eyes and the istanbul hair as she watched harry and jake make their way with surprising resolve and singlemindedness to the windows behind her. she kept her eyes averted as they passed directly behind her.

"look at this one." the duke picked up another little doll, a red one with white eyes and the blue uniform of one of alexander i's hussars. it held a golden baton in one hand and a pair of gardener's shears in the other.

"a little elaborate for my taste," samantha murmured politely. "but it must have a history behind it."

"maybe your drink has cooled off."
outside of hundreds of dead men she is waiting for you polyethylene
"he shot that no good hoss." "she's waiting for you upstairs."
"this isn't a half bad party."
"but it's the duke of r----------'s. it should be good."

"there you go again - betraying your enslavement to the culture of expectation."
harry breathed the outside air. "it's not that fresh." he told jake.
jake took out his trusty old .45. it had been weighing him down all night.
harry took out his brand new silver plated .357 that his grandmother had given him on her death bed. it had the initials "p e" engraved on it. nobody knew what they meant.

"let's do it.'
jake nodded. "it's time."

'how much?"
"but the woman is a saint."

harry went around to the right, jake to the left. there was no breeze.

"that's the first time i've heard the word saint used without irony since - since - "
"but the age of irony is over."

"i've only got fifteen.'
"fifteen what? and you will have to speak louder.''

'what i've got is worth more than fifteen."
in the hallway the white fog
'there is no history behind it at all. one of the maids made it this morning. i thought it had a little air about it."

"the maids have time to make dolls? what would the old duchess, your grandmother, have thought of that?"
"well, with the labor saving devices they have these days -"
"you allow your servants to use labor saving devices?"
the duke knew that samantha was just teasing and he smiled.

'if you only knew how sore my legs get."
the gray carpet the gray carpet forever in the hallway worn with the heels the white fog
"he shot that no good hoss"
the jockeys heard the shots and came running.

"you want to play?" the maid - the one who had made the hussar doll - and the young marquis were playing a video game in one of the upstairs bedrooms.
"no, it's all i did for twenty years in prison." the maid's son was seated in the old duchess's favorite armchair, which had been moved upstairs on her recent demise.

'a sepoy is more loyal than an irishman at any rate,"
"at any rate."
jake looked around the corner. it began to rain. but not, he noticed, at the far corner of the house, which harry would be coming around. harry had always had all the luck, especially with gloria and ever since gloria.
it started to rain harder. with his trusty old .45 held at his

the gray carpet of hundreds of dead men piranhas polyester
"you were in prison for twenty years?" the young marquis asked jacques.
"yes.'
"and all you did was play video games?

"when i wasn't working in the kitchen, yes."
two shots rang out in the white hall on the gray carpet in the rain on the far corner
"if i could pick a few winners i'd be all right."
worn with the heels the white fog in the hallway
"how many men did you kill in prison?"
"none, it wasn't a movie."

"harry the horse and jake the snake. a couple of right villains."
"actually sir i think they are - were - harry the haberdasher and jake the bricklayer - if you don't mind my saying so, sir."
two shots rang out piranhas on easter island in pursuit of a

"well, it's all the same now anyway, innit?"
"we watched the same movies you did."
"did ypu know these gentlemen, sir?"
"yes. i did."

'i believe they were harry the haberdasher and jake the bricklayer - a pair of notorious malefactors."
"as a matter of fact they were harold anderson, who owned a chain of home appliance stores in colorado and new mexico, and jackson johnson, the owner and managing partner of a fuel cell business in haverford, pennsylvania. i've known them both for twenty-five years."
"how many times did you have totally hot man sex with the other inmates?"

"never."
"liar liar pants on fire."
"rude little devil, isn't he?" jacques asked his mother.
"he is a marquis."
"that's no excuse for bad manners."
"what do they teach these kids these days?"
"ah, you were well served to be safe in prison, mon enfant."

"we'll sort it all out at headquarters, sir."

"we watched the same movies you did."

late in the evening of the sixteenth of february, --79, after a rough
voyage which lasted thirty-two days, joyful exclamations were heard
everywhere on deck.

i hate to have to tell the old man
sparks will fly captain hardigan of the straits

what a glorious daybreak followed this dark night! the sea no longer
tossed our ship. under the skilled guidance of the pilot, who had just
arrived, and whose bronze form was so sharply defined against the pale
sky, our steamer, breathing heavily with its broken machinery, slipped
over the quiet, transparent waters of san francisco bay straight to
north beach.

will fly of the straits wild eyed tatanya you don't know strange things will happen is death captain hardigan and the word you don't know in monsoon season treasure! the meaning of the word in monsoon season gold! the gods is death is death you don't know captain hardigan the meaning of the word the gods dont care with sparks will fly the meaning of the word that will set you free and the world strange things happen jewels! is death you don't know wildeyed tatanya

after the tropical nights of the pacific ocean and the scorching hot days
that had tortured us since singapore , we, people of the distant north, now
experienced something strange and unwonted, as if the very fresh soft
air had cast its spell over us. there was not a cloud in the sky,
thickly strewn with dying stars.

and the word don't argue with the gods strange strings will happen ivory! in monsoon season captain hardigan had a word with wildeyed tatanya don't expect much of the straits strange mutterings are heard and the words wildeyed tatanya running down he heard of british headquarters mockery running don on the white counter of british headquarters

"i'm sorry but these women can not be released."

and suddenly, almost without interval between darkness and light, the
red-hot globe, emerging on the opposite side from under oakland, leant
his golden chin on alcatraz island and seemed to stop for
a while, as if examining us.

on the white counter he heard on the white counter mockery a strange bird he was very far in her slender fingers from home the yellow light he heard in her dark eyes a strange bird in her dark eyes the winding hills the yellow light the winding hills running down mockery of british headquarters of british headquarters a strange bird the yellow light he was very far of british headquarters tenderness the winding hills in her slender fingers from home from home running down from home in her slender fingers tenderness the yellow knight he was very far gone tenderness he heard in her dark eyes in her dark eyes in her slender finery a strange bird tenderness
