Voice Over:

William Burroughs (cut-up extract) from „Last Words of Hassan Sabbah“ and “’Nothing here now but the recordings“


„Listen to my last words, anywhere!
Listen all you boards, governments, syndicates, nations of the world,
And you, powers behind what filth deals consummated in what lavatory,
To take what is not yours ,
To sell out your sons forever! To sell the ground from unborn feet
for ever?
I bear no sick words junk words love words forgive words from Jesus
I have not come to explain or tidy up
What am I doing over here with the workers, the gooks, the apes, the
dogs, the errand boys, the human animals?
Why don't I come over with the board, and drink coca-cola and make it?
Explain how the blood, and bones, and brains of a hundred million
more or less gooks went down the drain in green piss!
So you on the boards could use bodies, and minds, and souls that
were not yours, are not yours, and never will be yours.
You have the wrong name and the wrong number!
Mr Luce Getty Lee Rockafeller

Don't let them see us! Don't tell them what we are doing!"

Crab men! Tape worms! Intestinal parasites!
Like Burroughs, that proud American name?
Proud of what exactly? Would you all like to see exactly what
Burroughs has to be proud of?
The Mayan Caper, the centipede hype,
Short time racket, the heavy metal gimmick?
All right, Mister Burroughs, who bears my name and my words burried
all the way
For all to see, in Time Square, in Picadilly,

Play it all, play it all, play it all back!
Pay it all, pay it all, pay it all back!

" No! Now! No! "
"Premature! Premature! Premature!"

Are these the words of the all powerful boards and syndicates of the earth?

I say to all: these words are not premature . These words may be
too late.
