We have to turn his amp off half the time. He'll be playing one thing, we'll be playing a-fucking-nother. Lads, I sympathize. But Sidney's more than a mere bass player. He's a fabulous disaster. He's a symbol, a metaphor. [Ringing] He embodies the dementia of a nihilistic generation. He's a fucking star. [Continues ringing] [John] He's a fucking head case. Shut up. [Malcom] Phoebe! [John] You know, I've talked some shit. [Malcom muttering] Yeah. Sidney's not the problem. The problem, as you are all aware... it's "spunkin." She wants you to book them a suite at... Uh, where?

There's no way. [Phoebe] Look, it's purely financial. We can't afford... an entourage. I'm not an entourage. I know what you're feeling. I know how important your relationship is. But if you two wanna stay together, we'll just have to find another bass player. Sid Vicious is the Sex Pistols. Bollocks. Oh, yeah, that's right. You can't leave me behind. Paul wouldn't stand for it. We're the rhythm section. Paul. Look, it's only a month. You can live that long without each other, can't you? [Chuckling] And if you do survive, I have been talking to the record company. They're going to buy you a little house. Oh. How lovely for you. You think I'm an asshole, don't you? Yes, I do. You really think you can buy Sid off of me? Fuck you. Take him. I only want what's best for Sidney. I don't wanna go on your fucking tour anyhow. I got my own stuff to do. Paul. [Burps] Paul.

Anything you like. You're a free agent now. I'm going... to see Nancy. Yeah, we'll do that. Master kung fu. Well, try and get off of heroin, eh? Come on, promise. Okay. And cut down on the drinking as well. All right, I promise. Cross me heart and hope to die. [Blues] Your double brandy, sir. That evil, big-city doctor when he walked by I get the burn yeah, that evil big-city doctor he give me the burn [Mman on TV] Pop star Sid Vicious landed unexpectedly today at la guardia airport... and was rushed to a nearby hospital. A spokesman for his record company said... Vicious was suffering from nervous exhaustion. [Indistinct] [Screaming] A hippie! Sid, it's a french hippie. [Sid's voice] Dear mum, guess where your Simon's turned up? - Since you can't guess, I will tell you. - Personal life, man. [Nancy's voice] Paris, in the spring. Oh, and the Eiffel Tower! Sid's recording here, and he's brilliant. We go shopping every day. Sid bought me lots of underwear, and it's all French. You'd love it here. Lots of love, from Nancy and Sid. Nancy! Sid! Sidney, long time no see. Hugh Kares. [Coughing] We met at trumps. You remember. Huh? No, he doesn't. Sid... this is my girlfriend, Nancy. Hi, Nancy. Let's go. Let's take lunch, you know, go to... get yourself a chair and sit down, shut up. Everything's crazy for me right now, but I've always got time for you, babe. Oh! Ooh! Oh, Jesus Christ. Get it out. Get it out, Sidney. That's all right. That's all right. Oh, dude! Get it all out. Come on. Oh, Jeez. [Sid coughing] When you're feeling better... he's feeling fine. You're making him sick. Sid, let's go. When you're feeling better... fuck him. We'll leave him with the check. You're gonna make somebody a lot of money, Sidney! [Horn honking] [Orchestral ballad] And now the end is near and so I face the final curtain [laughs] You cunt I'm not a queer I'll state my case of which I'm certain I've lived a life that's full and each and every highway and more much more than this I did it my way [punk] Regrets I've had a few but then again too few to mention I did what I had to do I saw it through without exemption I planned each charted course each careful step along the highway and more much more than this I did it my way there were times I'm sure you knew when there was fuck? Fuck, fuck-all else to do but through it all when there was doubt I shot it up or kicked it out I faced 'em all and the world and did it my way [continues] I've loved and then a snide I've had my fill [grunts] My share of losing and now the tears subside I find it all so amusing to think [audience screaming] I killed a cat [gunfire continues] And may I say out in the driveway and no no, no, not me I did it my way it seems like all my friends are dead. When I'm dead, will you be sad? I couldn't live without you. - You couldn't? - No. We better go together then. How should we do it? We could... jump off a building. Throw ourselves under a subway. O.d. If I asked you to kill me, would you? What... what would i do? I couldn't live without you. You'd kill yourself too, then? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Shit. I hate this fucking life. [Crying] No, this is... this is just a rough patch. Things will be much better when we get to America, I promise. We're in America. What? We've been here a week. New York is in America, you fuck. What? Couldn't be. A week? Yeah. What day is it? Oh, shit. Is it tuesday or wednesday? We're supposed to be at grandma and grandpa's on wednesday. Where's my fuckin' book? [Papers rustling] Shit. God. [Siren wailing] [Horns honking] [Sirens, horns continue] No! Look! There's the rollerama! Sid, I won a roller skating trophy there when I was six years old. Nancy, don't fib. Fuck you, grandma. - Oh, no! - [Horns honking] [Sid laughing] This place is a fucking paradise. You guys gotta come see us in New York when I get Sid some gigs. Can't he cut his own meat? They really want him at Max's. They're too fuckin' cheap. They only wanna pay him three grand. I mean, he's worth five at least. Sid's a really big star in New York. We both are. [Chuckling] Yeah, yeah. God, we barely have any time to ourselves. We don't even have time to get to the methadone clinic. We've only got enough for two days. Grandma, can I borrow the car? I wanna teach Sid how to drive American. Mom, how come Nancy gets to borrow grandma's car and I don't? She's the one who got fucked up and wrecked it. Shut up. What do you know, crater face? Fuckin' twerp. Too bad about your brothers, Mary Jane. Still taking idiot lessons? So, are you gonna make an honest woman out of our Nancy, Sid? Well, she's always been honest to me. Grandpa, sir. She's never lied to me. But what are your, uh, intentions? Well, first off, we're gonna go down to the methadone clinic on monday, and then Nancy's gonna get me some gigs. And then we're gonna go off and, like, live in Paris... and just sort of go out in a blaze of glory. But don't worry. You'll be proud of us. So why don't we go down to the rec room? Fuck this and fuck that fuck it all, you fuckin' fuckin' brat I don't want a baby who looks like that she don't want a baby that looks like that fucking a fucking animal [coughing] Oh, that's... that's an old one. So, what else should we do, huh? Oh, no more. I'm tired. I wanna go noddy-blinkums. Whose bedroom are we sleepin' in? Actually, dear, you're not staying here. We thought it would be more fun for you to stay downtown at the Sunshine Inn. No. What about French toast and blintzes? You don't want to come back here for breakfast. Your bus leaves at 9: 17. I thought we're staying another day. Grandpa and I must have misunderstood. See, we're, uh... we're going out of town tomorrow. The whole family is going out of town. I didn't know we were going anywhere. [Grandma] be quiet. That's all right. Can we come? No, Nancy, you just can't. - Well, will you at least drive us to the motel? - Of course. And we'll give you money for a taxi for tomorrow morning. You'll get to the bus in plenty of time. Here. Darling, it was lovely to see you. Here. Here, take it. Sid. What? I can't just leave him there. [Sid's voice] These people, they're really lovely. Best fuckin' food I ever ate. [Tv, indistinct] So why'd they throw us out? 'Cause they know me. [Kiss] [Sirens blaring] Can you move your foot? Know about the golden triangle? Yeah. That's where the heroin comes from. Heard about it when I was in the 'nam. You heard of vietnam, right? Yup. Yeah, uh-huh. Yeah, and while us guys was fightin', dyin'... and gettin' all fucked up, the CIA was flyin' the shit out of there and into here... with our planes. You know who paid for that shit? We did. That is, the government. You know why? 'Cause smack is the great controller. Keeps the people stupid... when they could be smart. What's he on about? Some bullshit politics. You guys got no right to be strung out on that stuff. You could be selling healthy anarchy. But long as you're addicts, you'll be full of shit. [Woman] Come on, Vito. Don't be such a jerk. I just don't know how many people want to see Vicious on his own. Are you kidding? Sid Vicious is a major... he's not gonna be on his own. He's gonna have a great fuckin' backup band behind him. Yeah. Yeah? Who? "Who?" Iggy, Dee Dee, Chrissie, Debbie. Debbie harry singing backup. It's true! Johnny Thunders, Joe Strummer... I love you, Nancy. You're a fuckin' nutcase. Stiv Bators, Jerry nolan. I'm running a business here. You really think he can pull this off? Yes! Can he play? He can! Shit, he practices all the time, right? Vito, come on, please. Give us a gig. You want me to fuck you? [Scoffs] No. And you shouldn't offer. It's not professional. [Phone ringing] [Ringing continues] [Dial tone] All right. I'll give you three grand for three gigs. All right! Okay. Deal. Deal. [Strumming guitars] Sid! Sid! Hey, Max. Sid! Sid, guess what! Sid, i did it! I got you three gigs at Max's! At least three, maybe more! Are you excited? Yeah. What? Sid? What? What's goin' on? We were just jamming, you know? And watching trigger. What is... what is this? Sid! Did you give him this? Fuckin', come on. No way. - Sid. I just came here to jam, all right? Just be cool. Don't tell me to be cool. Sid! Sid, we had a deal. We said we weren't gonna do any more smack until after the gig, you asshole, you fucking jerk! Shit!

Shit, you asshole, motherfucking jerk... Ow! Sid! [Grunts] [Sniffling] Sid, you're the fuckhead! Hey, what the fuck is going on? Oh, shit. Is he all right? No, he's a fucking asshole junkie. Fuckhead. Don't kick him. You're really gonnalove this place. A lot of great artists stay here. I want you to stay a long time. Let's take him to my room. It's a couple of my foreign exchange students. Why don't we just get to the elevator? We'll take the elevator.

You wanna hear "my way," assholes? I forgot it. [Nancy] You were fucking great, Sid. You were so fucking good. [Sid] I don't know about that. Most of the people there were screaming for John, throwing drugs and shit at me. That's 'cause they love you. They're your fans. Yeah, we'd sound a lot better if we rehearsed. [Nancy] Sid doesn't need to rehearse. He's a natural. [Sid] yeah a natural fuckup. If you'd get it together, sid. You gotta learn the words. Words. It's not words. It's just those bridge and tunnel geeks don't appreciate his style. "My way." Hey, Sid, don't go gettin' down on yourself. If we just worked a little harder, you know. What do you know? Hey, Nancy, be cool. I'm just trying to help Sid out. Everybody likes Sid. Nobody likes the shit you do. Nancy, be cool. Don't worry about it. People'll be into my stuff around '85, '86. Yeah? Well, you're lucky to be in Sid's band. You all are. Nancy, be cool. Fuck you! Shut the fuck up! Everything was fine. It was going really well. We don't fucking deserve this, asshole! I'll see you at rehearsal, gang. Hey, Sid. We saw your show at Max's. All right. What'd you think of it? You suck! Sid, those guys are full of shit. What do they know? I know what's best for you. That's why I'm your manager. "Learn the fucking words." You don't need the fucking words. He doesn't need words. Just make 'em up like you did on "my way." Huh? I wish we had some more coke. [Indistinct] Haunted by the ghost I want to be haunted by the ghost I want to be haunted by the ghost I want to be haunted by the ghost of your precious love of your precious love [meows] Sid. Sid. Hmm? I must have been dreaming. I thought we had this little dog. It was really little, and we loved it. But then it got sick, and it was dead. [Mumbles] Yeah, it was dead, and we loved it. We didn't know whether to bury it in New York... or to keep it, so we ate it. [Sighs] [Knock at door] [Man] Hey, Sid! Sid, get up, man. We got a gig. Come on, let's go.

What do we have? Put it in there. Give me that. Yeah. It's none of my business, man, but I don't know why you hang with this chick. Fuckin' junk hog, let's face it. On top of that, she's always getting down on you, bitchin' at you, complaining. Shit, man. She's all right. She don't mean it. She ought to have more respect for you. If I had a girlfriend, she'd show me some respect. Believe it. What are you talkin' about, respect? You don't know her. She's gotten me these gigs at Max's. We're both gettin' off the "h." Smart move. Smart move. Is it my turn? Yeah, maybe. Don't get me wrong, Sid. Nancy's great. I love her. You know what I'm saying. [Sighs] Did I leave a lot of money around here?

You won't even have to wait for the elevator. You'll like it. Look at that. The door's open. [Chuckling] Wait a second. Wait a second. Excuse me. Where are you going with that lamp? This is our lamp. You cannot move furniture from room to room. I forget where the fixtures are. This is our lamp. We bought it. Where's the tv? There's no tv? There's no tv! Would you do me a favor? Go up to your old room, take the television, bring it down. He wants you to like this room. Bob Dylan was born here. I haven't got anything. Just my wake-up shot. Nobody's holding downtown. Bowery said he'd meet us here. Are you still buying off bowery? I heard he sold someone a paper and, like, died. That's fucking bullshit. Are you guys still fighting, Nance? He's real depressed. Yeah. Jimmy's real depressed too. He broke three of my ribs. [Shouts, indistinct] [Banging on window] We're being so stupid. We should just leave 'em. Yeah, sure. Love kills. See ya. Hey, Sid.

Oh, shut up, please. Quit goin' on about it. [Sniffling] I've got more reasons to be depressed than you. You're much better off than I am. Why? At least youused to be something. I've never been anything. [Footsteps approaching] [Keys jingling] Is that bowery? No. It's that Dwarf. He's not a Dwarf, Sid. He's a little boy. What would you know? Little kids don't dress like that. Oh, fuck you. Oh, fuck you too! Sid. [Crying] I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I wish we had something to hit as well. [Meowing] I wish we could get out of here. Sid, Nance, pull up your pants! Yo! [Nancy] Bowery. [Sid] What've you got? Not much. You guys got any soda around here? [Nancy] Come on. Don't fuck around. We got the cash. Everybody's got the cash, but nobody's holding. I've been up and down this island twice today. Been all the way to Brooklyn. Hate that fuckin' town. I've been reading this book.
