The Gigolo

They wanted me to do this - 'Do you mind if I watch?' I said: 'No' - as a seasoned pro, it was nothing, someone said to me: 'How can you make love when you don't love them?' That was my job. Of course, it may not be a thing of beauty, supposing that I didn't satisfy them, rarely, if so, I still had to be paid for the haircut, mission accomplished, did my best - that was my job. 'Aren't you ashamed of all the things you do? Do you satisfy yourself as well or hold off? I did what I had to do - there was no guarantee, to the best of my ability - that was my job. 'What about your own love life?' 'That's different - he doesn't expect the same service, when I come home.'
