-See Trump killed Leonard Cohen.

-Saw that.

-He doesn’t only hate women. He hates the men tha’ women love. ’Specially older women.

-Fuckin’ Clooney’s gone into hidin’.

-Fuck him an’ his nespresso.

-And the Pope.

-Fuck the Pope?

-No. Women – they love him. Mine does, an’ anyway.

-Poor oul’ Leonard. He was good, but. Wasn’t he?

-Ah, he was. You should hear me grandkids singin’ Hallelujah.

-Good, yeah?

-Fuckin’ hilarious.

-The wife loved him.

-Leonard?

-She even became a Buddhist cos o’ Leonard.

-Is tha’ righ’?

-For a few weeks, just. Then she saw me eatin’ a quarter pounder an’ she said, ‘Fuck the Eightfold Path.’ But she’s always on at me to wear a hat like Leonard Cohen’s.

-Well, he won’t be needin’ it any more – in fairness.

-The thing is, but. If Leonard walked in here – if he wasn’t dead, like – they’d all go, ‘There’s an interestin’ man with a hat on him.’ If I walked in, it’d be, ‘Will yeh look at tha’ fuckin’ eejit with the hat.’ An’ that’s the big difference between us an’ Leonard Cohen. We couldn’t even start bein’ cool an’ Leonard never even had to try.
