Paul Varjak: Sure.
Holly Golightly: Well, when I get it the only thing that does any good is to jump in a cab and go to Tiffany's. Calms me down right away.

Now, universally agreed to sound like the logical progression of events from the formerly mentioned; A smoldering cat walking away from a mans shattered genitals, and lighting up a cigarette whilst rose pedals rain from the heavens causing convulsions of ecstasy for all they touch, besides the smoking cat... The band name origin is debated, but is thought to be a reference to one of the following; marlboro reds, spartan soldiers, pirates, cowboys, etc.
