The Title itself refers to a comment made by a child that lived in the flat below Marc. The boy was full of energy and running around in his flat and literally bouncing of the walls. Marc asked him why and he said that he had just got some new “Spaceball Boots” as opposed to baseball boots.
The imagined that he was leaping through space when in reality he was bouncing of the walls of a flat in Hackney
It makes a quite neat existential metaphor for someone that is trapped inside an inadequate body;
“i know i'm small
but i enjoy living anyway”
That cant get a girl that’s out of his league
“she is a changeless angel
she's a city it's a pity
that i'm like me”
