Darlings are you ready for the long winter's fall?
said the lady in her parlor
said the butler in the hall.
Is there time for another?
cried the drunkard in his sleep.
Not likely
said the little child. What's done
the Lord can keep.
And the vicar stands a-praying.
And the television dies
as the white dot flickers and is gone
and no-one stops to cry.
The big jet rumbles over runway miles
that scar the patchwork green
where slick tycoons and rich buffoons
have opened up the seam
of golden nights and champagne flights
ad-man overkill
and in the haze
consumer crazed
we take the sugar pill.
Jagged fires mark the picket lines
the politicians weep
and mealy-mouthed
through corridors of power on tip-toe creep.
Come and see bureaucracy
make its final heave
and let the new disorder through
while senses take their leave.
Families screaming line the streets
and put the windows through
in corner shops
where keepers kept
the country's life-blood blue.
Take their pick
and try the trick
with loaves and fishes shared
and the vicar shouts
as the lights go out,
and no-one really cares.
Dark Ages
shaking the dead
Closed pages
better not read
Cold rages
burn in your head.
In the high country of the mind one has to become adjusted to the thinner air of uncertainty...

Living home on monkey island, baby
Right in the middle of a zoo
Living home on monkey island, baby
Pretend to be a monkey, too
Well there¢s one thing about these monkeys, baby
They don¢t know I¢m around
But that¢s pretty good, ¢cause if they knew
They¢ll probably come and put me down
Living home on monkey island, baby
Right in the middle of a zoo
Living home on monkey island, baby
Pretend to be a monkey, too
Well, here I am on monkey island
Hiding behind a rock
I¢m all dressed up in my monkey suit
Pretending to be something I¢m not
With my paisley tie and my one button suit
I¢m about as close as I can get
I guess I must be doing okay
¡Cause they haven¢t come and got me yet
Living home on monkey island, baby
Right in the middle of a zoo
Living home on monkey island, baby
Pretend to be a monkey, too..
Dedicated to ... The Donald.

Oh yeah, Greenland of course, that good ol' Southern State where the Grass is Green and the Tides are High and the Birds are Free.![]()

Bloody Right !
So you think your schooling's phoney
I guess it's hard not to agree
You say, "It all depends on money
And who is in your family tree"
Right, right, you're bloody well right
You got a bloody right to say
Right, you're bloody well right
You know you got a right to say
Ha ha you're bloody well right
Yeah she know you're right to say
Yeah yeah you're bloody well right
You know you're right to say
And me, I don't care anyway
Write your problems down in detail
Take them to a higher place
You've had your cry, no, I shouldn't say wail
In the meantime hush your face
Right, quite right, you're bloody well right
You got a bloody right to say
Right, you're bloody well right
You know you got a right to say
Aha you're bloody well right
Yes you know you're right to say
Yeah yeah you're bloody well right
You got a right to say
You got a bloody right to say
You got a bloody right to say
You got a bloody right to say
You got a bloody right to say

Or should I say: You Got That Right
Well I've heard lots of people say
They're gonna settle down
You don't see their faces
And they don't come around
Well I'm not that way
I got to move along
I like to drink and to dance all night
Comes to a fix not afraid to fight
You got that right
Said, you got that right
Sure got that right
Seems so long I been out on my own
Travel light and I'm always alone
Guess I was born with a travelin' bone
When my times up, I'll hold my own
You won't find me in an old folks home
You got that right
Said you got that right
Well, you got that right
Sure got that right
I tried everything in my life
Things I like I try 'em twice
You got that right
You sure got that right…
