A whisper behind backs
As the whip cracks
On backs
A whisper so secret now
Will die somewhere somehow

Heinz – 22nd August 1984
If variety is the spice of life
I think I’d rather be dead
Cos the variety of spices in my life
Has gone somewhere else instead
The New Job – 21st August 1984
First day at work after being on the dole
You can’t understand why you’re living in a hole
Where wet walls slip
And fall into the dip
And you climb and climb
Til there’s no more time
A new job
An old job
The same job

Frailty – 20th August 1984
Our life is so frail
It smells so stale
We reach for the gun
And take away the fun
Kill animals
Kill people
Frail or stale?
I’ve hit it on the nail
Close Your Eyes – 18th August 1984
Close your eyes and count to three
One, two, three
There, now don’t you feel better
I’ll send the bill with my next letter
There’s the door, pat the secretary’s arse, bye!
Gardens – 17th August 1984
A little flower grows like only a flower grows
It grows in the garden next to the weeds
And they’ll make sure it never succeeds
At its function
Beetroots – 16th August 1984
The blood is boiling in the pan
Til it catches fire
I denounce you a beetroot
And a liar
Your blood stains our carpet of steel
Tell me little beetroot
Is what you feel real?
Take The Shit Out Of Your Mouth – 15th August 1984
Women have an equal right
Or don’t you understand
Women can survive on their own
They can go unmanned
Still, some women find the need to make a tie
And that tie may exist until they die
Take the shit out of your mouth I plead
Men and women have all they need
Have you no feelings? Is this what you want?
‘Bind me down and tie’
Are you really so stupid and dumb
As not to question why?
