'Twas meant to make folk smile, milady; and if it did, then has fulfilled its function.
I started playing in Punk bands, as you can imagine. I didn't think I'd be still playing almost thirty years later (actually, I didn't think I'd still be alive). Oh well, sanity comes to us all in the end. (Apart from those mad bits that remain.)

Now all my charms are o'erthrown
And what strength I have's my own
Which is most faint. Now 'tis true
I must be here confined by you
Or sent to Naples. Let me not...

(Alas no dukedom have I got...)
