Dotty Man
02:08
|
|||
woo woo world
la la land
potty planet
dotty man
just a dot of a man
with a spotty plan
to stay in lane
and avoid the blame
seismic activity
in this vicinity
our flood defences
are barbed wire fences
i smell burnt dinosaur
i smell eternal war
i write to the editor
about the building work next door

Unplanned Obsolescent
03:03
|
|||
didn't wake up this morning
and after noon i'm snoring
smoke so the bus comes faster
to hasten my departure
one of those shirkers
don't have a purpose
been told i should
told i'm no good
non-recyclable and spent
an unplanned obsolescent
a grey sludge of dust and tears
a picture of my worst fears
i'll never retrain
my fossilised brain
is a concerte maze
where i'm trapped for days
non-recyclable and spent
an unplanned obsolescent
a grey sludge of dust and tears
the cremains of wasted years
here endeth my rope
don't feel no hope, nope
can't keep my lid on
and now the seal's gone

Smashed Like A Mug
03:34
|
|||
before now, in my youth
i was full up of juice
but now time has spoken
and i have been broken
smashed like a mug
i drop on to the hard tiled floor
gimmie back, gimmie back my sippy cup
nothing fills me up no more
now i'm in jagged bits
scattered under the fridge
go and get the dust pan
to sweep up smashed mug man
smashed like a mug
i drop on to the hard tiled floor
gimmie back, gimmie back my sippy cup
nothing fills me up no more

Moon Bugs
03:25
|

do u wanna have one of my moon bugs?
because I've got a lot of these moon bugs
you can order them on the computer
they are the livestock, you are the farmer
are you liking the look of our moon bugs?
primitive eyes find our worms befuddled
moon grubs crushed into sticky black liquor
see them squeak down the street in a trickle
moon bugs
ought to tesselate, yet they bulge and fray
moon bugs
they forget their names and this consternates
do u wanna have one of my moon bugs?
because I've got a lot of these moon bugs
crawl on your flowers like tiny people
some expire falling off of the pistil
biofuel crop circles spin in their eyes
they put the abstract in everyday life
gonna wind up splattered like passata
speed baked patina, shards in the strata
moon bugs
ought to tesselate, yet they bulge and fray
moon bugs
they forget their names and this consternates

Close To Your Eyeball
02:29
|
|||
the fire is floating, the ice is smouldering
keep it from the kids that the sky is falling
holding the scissor close to your eyeball
almost but not quite touching your eyeball
some think what they like, nibbling their nails shorter
mysterious growths seen in every quarter
holding the scissor close to your eyeball
almost but not quite touching your eyeball
late one afternoon there was still no hurry
sink to the level where things can get better
holding the scissor close to your eyeball
almost but not quite touching your eyeball

Borb Slurry
08:19
|
|||
it's the philosophy and not sound quality
that's the reason I keep all this PVC
that is very very slowly poisoning me
I like my waves wavy, that's how they gotta be
got my job in the weapons industry
I cast my vote for the forever war party
hypersonic bombs fall as I sit down to my tea
never got to be a mutant zombie
the reason I can't believe that I'm really free
is that I can't fly like i can in my dreams
it's just terrible, having no agency
stuck travelling through time one way only
and I feel like vat of minced freshly hatched useless male chicks
and I feel like vat of minced freshly hatched useless male chicks
and I feel like vat of minced freshly hatched useless male chicks
and I feel like vat of minced freshly hatched useless male chicks

Redacted
03:09
|
|||
alarms ring
sinus thin
guts of string
arsehole sings
rejected
compacted
retracted
redacted
dry parts wet
veins tighten
crying sheets
walls close in
spheres expand
happy patch
then they crack
cutting back
no release
no relief
grievances
never peace
I can't speak
my voice squeaks
my pores leak
then they stream

Vertebrate
03:29
|
|||
vertebrate
we got spine
me and mine
vertebrate
got backbone?
you aren't alone
vertebrate
all endoes
come on let's go
vertebrate
we can flex
from our tails to our necks
no dislocation
no subluxation
only vertebration
one spiny nation

Susie's Fringe
03:16
|
|||
it's fashion you're studying
that explains the haircut then
still i cringe when I look back
susie's fringe and pinstripe slacks
it was the 3rd stupidest
thing i ever, ever said
still i cringe when I look back
susie's fringe and pinstripe slacks
others thank christ i forget
brain farts, faux pas, slights and negs
still i cringe when I look back
susie's fringe and pinstripe slacks

Seize The Moment
01:30
|
|||
I'm gonna seize this moment, make it mine
I wanna keep this moment close for all time
I'm gonna treasure this moment
'cos I feel fine
when I go outside
whether I find
the weather raining or shining
I'll be smiling
gonna freeze this moment in my mind
such a special moment, it sparkles and it shines
I'm gonna treasure this moment
'cos I feel fine
when I dream tonight
I'm gonna dream of my life
I'm gonna dream the next day
and then live it that way

Living In The End Times
02:51
|
|||
they say it's vain to claim
you're living in the end times
but much to my dismay
i'm living in the end times
it's really such a pain
living in the end times
i'm not gonna take the blame
for living in the end times
living in the end times
living in the end times
led by the murderous
living in the end times
who kill the living earth
living in the end times
the spoons don't go head down
living in the end times
i wring my hands and frown
living in the end times
living in the end times
living in the end times
they say it's vain to claim
you're living in the end times
but much to my dismay
i'm living in the end times
it's really such a pain
living in the end times
i'm not gonna take the blame
for living in the end times
living in the end times
living in the end times
the restless want to taste
they want to taste the flesh
the flesh of every beast
of every beast on earth

The Radiance
03:30
|
|||
no need of thinking too hard
no way of thinking too fast
no need to think in straight lines
don't filter out the sublime
let the radiance in
colour me in
over my edges
colour me in
full spectrum
colour me in
up to the brim
flooded with
the radiance
colour me in
over my edges
colour me in
full spectrum
colour me in
up to the brim
smooth on a comforting balm
under a blanket of calm
world in a bumblebee's hum
tingling shine of the sun
towers go up in the night
points to gather at first light
it will all work out alright
everything's gonna be fine

Five A Day
03:06
|

they want me to pander
why should i pander?
i won't pander
they want me to lay down
why should i lay down?
i won't lay down
they want me to spellcheck
why should i spellcheck?
i won't spell check
they want me to give a damn
why should i give a damn?
i won't give a damn
they want me to hate
why should i hate?
i won't hate
they want me to wait
why should i wait?
i won't wait
i am an outlaw
an outlier
deifiant
when they say five a day
i reply, i will try
when they say five a day
i reply, i will try
when they say five a day
i reply, i will try
when they say five a day
i reply, i will try
i am an outlaw
an outlier
deifiant
