I bought six condoms three months ago
But I haven’t used a single one
I’ve met lots of girls who’ve all said no
Maybe I’m doing something wrong
Sexual frustration is taking me over
I just want to find a good damn lover
When I do, I will thank her
But for now, I’m just a little wanker
Month: October 1987
Badhead – 24th October 1987
Badass motherfuckers
Skating on the sidewalk
Rad thru the precinct
Smashing up the billboards
Ride til you die
And skate for your life
Crashed out
Wheels split either side
Badhead, motherfucker
Badhead, shoot that sucker
Badhead, riding high
Badhead, watch you fly
17th Oct 2025 – I wasn’t really a part of skate culture and no one in our village had a skateboard, preferring BMXs and then motorbikes. Skateboards didn’t make much sense for fun or for transport. I did learn of its connection to punk through The Stupids and some other US bands. I seemed to understand that it was cool and rebellious without particularly knowing why. At least, until a little later when ‘the man’ tried to stop kids skating everywhere.
Screaming Ab-Dabs – 20th October 1987
Walking down the lonely street
Afraid of all the people you’ll meet
Telephone’s ring in an upstairs room
Grey clouds mist over your open wound
The streets are full of foreigners
Faces you don’t understand
Their evil sneers look down on you
You’re on computer scan
*John Otway – Mr C’s, Poole, Dorset, UK – 16th October 1987
*Crowforce, Farkle Family – Mr C’s, Poole, Dorset, UK – 15th October 1987
Graffiti Pop Art Heroes – 6th October 1987
Pop art pictures graffitied on the wall
Spray paint politics always on the ball
Now sold out to the popular cause
Plenty of money in painting the walls
Alleykat – 4th October 1987
Fighting for freedom in alleys of tin pan
Dodge or destroy everything you can
Cat amongst pigeons or a boy amongst men?
It’s time to start the shooting again
22nd Oct 2021 – Fatty and I would play this game for hours on end on my old Commodore 64, stoned, drunk or sober.
