What you gonna say?
What you gonna say?
What you gonna do?
What you gonna do?
It’s not been your day
It’s not been your day
It’s up to you
It’s up to you
Eat your young
Eat your young
Before they grow old
Eat your young
Eat your young
Whilst they still do what they’re told
What you gonna do?
What you gonna do?
What you gonna say?
What you gonna say?
It’s up to you
It’s up to you
It’s the only way
It’s the only way
Eat your young
Eat your young
Before they grow old
Eat your young
Eat your young
Whilst they still do what they’re told

Fragility

The streetlights glow with rain
The sun went down on our meeting
You had to catch your train
The time we had was far too fleeting
You put your hand to mine,
On the glass of the railway carriage,
A poet who doesn’t need words,
I was collateral damage.
Still the feelings strong
Much more than a Facebook LIKE
I kiss your lips
On the photo on my Skype
When would I / hold you again
Handle once more your fragility –
How could you/ forget my name
When other lovers / competed with me?
Why aren’t you
Why aren’t you
Why aren’t you able to love me?
Why aren’t you
Why aren’t you
Why aren’t you able to love me?

My Idea of Fun
02:33

Statement: Narcissist found in possession of multiple photographs.
Torn love letters. Paid for sex. Understated psychological violence
My idea of lust
is playing with your trust
Statement: Fantasist rang forty times a day, left you messages. Turned up at your work place. Stole items of clothing which he used in games of self-gratification.
My idea of love
is playing with your glove
Statement: Attention seeker; psychological disorder; low self esteem; manipulative personality; undermines your every word and action
My idea of fun
is playing with your gun

Before the victims are demonised
When the wreaths are laid
Machines are suddenly humanised
The skills we had will fade
By the side of the motorway
When all the cars have crashed
Don’t you think there’s another way
If only we were asked
Rah Rah Rah
Rah Rah Rah
Rah Rah Rah
Rah Rah Rah
If the clock is ticking
Then someone’s charged the phone
The solar cells are connected to
The overseeing drones
I have come to you with the word of God
Spoke in machine code
So all you followers of the dial
come meet me on the road
Rah Rah Rah
Rah Rah Rah
Rah Rah Rah
Rah Rah Rah
Burnt down the cathedrals last
After you’ve blanked the text
Take the placebo pills
So that you’re not next
Reverse engineer my paradox
Codify my darkest thoughts
The bears returning for Goldilocks
Are smarter than we thought
Rah Rah Rah
Rah Rah Rah
Rah Rah Rah
Rah Rah Rah
Other kinds of madness
Are in every other song
Other kinds of madness
Are in every other song
Rah Rah Rah
Rah Rah Rah
Rah Rah Rah
Rah Rah Rah

Kathy Acker is a friend of mine
I was going through a very bad time
Looking for a book that said
All modern literature wasn’t dead
I read Cities of the Red Night
By lonesome cowboy Bill
Then I found Kathy Acker
And I thought that she was brill
Kathy Acker is a friend of mine
she helped me through a troubled time
Empire of the senseless
And Blood and Guts
Great Expectations
And Young Lust
By the time I was nineteen
Kathy Acker was on my scene
Despite life being sometimes a bind
Kathy Acker is a friend of mine
Kathy Acker is a friend of mine
she’s a star that will last all time
I read about her in Elizabeth Young
thought it time someone wrote a song
I’ve never been to New York, but never mind
for Kathy Acker is a friend of mine
She died too young in Mexico
Why do the good ones have to go?
