“I danced on the Sabbath
And I cured the lame;
The holy people
Said it was a shame.”
Lord of the Dance (1963)
Context: I danced on the Sabbath
And I cured the lame;
The holy people
Said it was a shame.
They whipped and they stripped
And they hung me on high,
And they left me there
On a Cross to die.
Marco's breath scorched my ear. "You're a perfectly respectable dancer."

Variant: I hate my body. I like so many other people's bodies. I like legs — a good pair of legs on someone else always makes me jealous.

Context: Bobby Moore — he defended like a lord. Let me tell you about this man. When I played, I would face up to a defender, I would beat him with my eyes, send him the wrong way; I would look one way and then go the other. Defenders would just kick me in frustration. They would foul me because they couldn't stop me, or because I would confuse them with my movement. I would move my eyes, my legs or my body, but not always the ball. They would follow my move, but not Bobby, not ever. He would watch the ball, he would ignore my eyes and my movement and then, when he was ready and his balance was right, he would take the ball, always hard, always fair. He was a gentleman and an incredible footballer.
