I could never really understand the dialogue in the middle, during the instrumental. This is the firs time I've seen it transcribed.

Interestingly, James Young chose to name the two character "Angelo" and "Stosh" which are two names usually associated with Italians and Poles respectively. I never heard that until now.

Overall, I think this is easily JY's best song. I love the instrumental ending of the song but suspect that was really Dennis Deyoung that did that.
