And their footsteps were like this: [running wildly from imaginary bees] "Im covered in bees!"
"So, I thought, its not working. So I threw my breasts out of the window of my Lamborghini, in my mind … no, I threw the breasts out of the window of my Ford Fiesta, in my mind. Actually, I threw them out over the handlebars of my bicycle [mouthing the words] in my mind. And they hit a small child, who ran, "Mum, mum, mum … Ive been attacked by … jellyfish!"
