Personally I think that some blame should accrue to his parents - “Maurice”?!?! Unless there is a trust fund or RICH RELATIVE involved here, I would have reversed the names to “Joseph Maurice” just in the name of decency. His childhood school experiences ... “Maurice, please come up to the blackboard” - shudder!
Some people call me the space cowboy yeah
Some call me the gangster of love
Some people call me Maurice
Cause' I speak of the pompetous of love
