Alternative Memories...

Let's sort the buyers from the spy-ers, the needy from the greedy and those who trust me from those who don't if you can't see value here you're not here shopping; you're here shoplifting. You see these goods? Never seen daylight, moonlight, Israelite. Fanny by the gaslight. Take a bag, I took a bag home last night. Cost me more than ten pound, I can tell you. Anyone like jewellery? Look at that there. Handmade in Italy, hand-stolen in Stepney it's as long as my arm, I wish it was as long as something else. Don't think because these boxes are sealed up, they're empty the only man who sells empty boxes is the undertaker and by the look of some of you lot today; I'd make more money with me measuring tape. Here! One price, ten pound! - Did you say ten pound? - Are you deaf? - That's a bargain. I'll take one. - Squeeze in if you can left leg, right leg, body will follow they call it walking. You want one aswell, darlin'? You do?! That's it. They're waking up! Treat the wife, treat your friend's wife, it's a lot more fun if you don't get caught. Hold on. You want one as well? Okay, darlin', show me a bit of life then it's no good standing out there like one o'clock half-struck, you better buy them. These are not stolen they just haven't been paid for and we can't get them again. Cause they've changed the bloody locks. Here! One for you, it's no good coming back later when I've sold out. Too late, too late will be the cry when the man with the bargains has passed you by...
