""what's up?"" ""the thing's fucked..."" ""...?"" ""doesn't work anymore..."" ""got another idea for the piece."" ""forget it..."" ""why?"" ""i told you, the thing's fucked. i can't get a single damned sound out of it anymore."" ""tell me something new."" silence... ""okay, listen to this..... dab-dab-dabba-da-dab..."" marian sung the chorus. ""what'd you mean big in japan?"" ""well, you know, the name of that band, fits the tune somehow, don't you think?"" ""you'd have to write the lyrics in english."" ""sure..."" ""it's not trendy..."" silence... outside a bird twittered. someone walked across the courtyard. a police siren sounded in the distance. michael got up and disappeared into the kitchen. marian sat down on the sofa and waited. ""want some?"" michael asked. marian didn't answer. the bird stopped singing. something fell to the kitchen floor with a clank. five minutes later michael returned with a stony look and, standing by the open window, stared at the grey, bare walls enclosing the yard. ""it was a ridiculous idea,"" he said. ""how much do we have left?"" ""for a couple of days..."" ""what'd you suggest?"" ""sell the thing again."" ""how much?"" ""i spoke to ralph. he'd give us three grand."" marian was silent. ""it's a lot of money. would last for 'bout a week,"" michael said at the walls. ""shit. the thing cost over seven thousand."" ""it's lot,"" michael repeated. marian stared at the tour poster. he thought of packed arenas, trips to far-away countries, t.v. appearances, the big bucks they'd be earning, roaring applause and that he would never again ... - he went into the kitchen. there was a candle burning on the table. glimmering next to it in the candlelight lay three tiny silver packets and a teaspoon. in the sink lay a used syringe. a thin streak of blood ran from the tip of the needle all the way to the edge of the plug-hole and formed a red, hairline circle around it. he took one of the wrappers. dab-dab-dabba-da-dab ... good-bye ice-cream girl ...
