SUSHIT
He moved here with his family from Japan when he was 14. Small and shy, he was the perfect one for the cool guys to bully. His name is Roy. They used to call him Roy-Toy and blow a raspberry.
The old pic from High School. The blonde cheerleaders in their pink tops and short white skirts are on parade, the cool guys of the football team cheer them up, betting on who will fuck who. Tommy-Boy and Gina-Girl, king and queen of the school right in the middle. So perfect, so unreachable. Roy had really not much to laugh back then – a rejected, lonely and miserable dirtbag baby.
The Gladiator came out at all the cinemas and Roy Sr. thought it was a good idea to take Roy Jr. to watch it. Maximus Decimus Meridius' speech struck hard: “My name is Roy Lee, recognized player of Dungeons & Dragons, immigrant from Okinawa, bullied like the last dirtbag at the Great Valley High School! AND I WILL HAVE MY VENGEANCE, IN THIS LIFE OR THE NEXT!”
Nowadays Roy owns the hottest trending Japanese restaurant in town. His Sushi is THE Sushi: The best of the best – simply addictive! Tommy-Boy and Gina-Girl are regulars – every Thursday evening, same table, same food. Despite the busy kitchen, Roy is always keen to prepare the food and serve their table himself. “Cool, guys, here you go with my special Sushit!” he usually says. They love Roy's special treatment and they always laugh because “Sushit” sounds so funny and ironic.
When the music is over, turn off the light!

SWING LOW
It’s a cold night in the heart of the city
Out here on the frozen street
And as I pause to write these words
My train of thoughts is starting to go places quite deserted
Let’s take a twisted family snapshot
Before the daylight breaks
I don’t even know how I got here
But sometimes, y’ know, the road happens to be slightly diverted
So now you want to be a riot and you’re acting all fine
And your hunger is aggregated
But all the fires behind those poles
They can’t hide the fact that you’re all quite well sedated
And I’m just one of you I guess
And I am blessed and ashamed
But all the smoke and the plastic flames
They make me feel so calm and animated
Calm and animated
Where do we go, sweet fuckin’ chariot?
Swing low!
And now I’m driving a spike
Through your corner of the picture
But all the cracks in the shattered scene
They won’t make your real world crumble any faster
And as I stumble through this madness
I find beauty here and there
I’ll write my name upon what’s left of it
So they know how to find me once we’re all departed
So I collect my belongings and maybe some of yours, too
I need to find some space
I need to clear my head
These blurry visions, they sometimes seem to take the best of me
So I light up a cigarette
And I take a deep breath
As I’m trying to get away from it all
And finally find some peace for just a split second
One split fuckin’ second
Where do we go, sweet fuckin’ chariot?
Swing low!
