Open door
Question posed
Shut door
Case closed

Give Me – 29th September 1986

September 29, 1986March 19, 2024 ~ shaun tenzenmen ~ Leave a comment

Give me your love
Give me your face
Give me your notebook
Give me your space
Give me your heart
Give me your whole
Give me your sleaze
Give me your soul

Black And White – 28th September 1986

September 28, 1986March 19, 2024 ~ shaun tenzenmen ~ Leave a comment

Brown paper wraps your present
It’s plain to see
It’s all right
It’s in black and white
But what can it be?

Pressure – 27th September 1986

September 27, 1986March 19, 2024 ~ shaun tenzenmen ~ Leave a comment

Pressure pipes about to explode
They’ve taken all they can hold
Pent-up energy, ready to burst
It could only be for the worst
You let it build up for too long
You thought there was nothing wrong
Ignore the problem and it’ll go away
But you’ll only end up having to pay

Moth – 26th September 1986

September 26, 1986March 19, 2024 ~ shaun tenzenmen ~ Leave a comment

Clothes in your cupboard
Full of moth holes
Get out your mothballs
Keep in control
Moth on your cloth
Gotta get it off
Clothes all holey
Moth ate them slowly

Robot – 24th September 1986

September 24, 1986March 19, 2024 ~ shaun tenzenmen ~ Leave a comment

Are you plugged in
To the latest thing?
Robotic automation
Is here to save the nation
Sitting in their yen
Japanese businessmen
Getting rich quick
By turning the odd trick
What do they care about the unemployed?
‘Here, have a robot – don’t get annoyed’

Rain – 23rd September 1986

September 23, 1986January 27, 2024 ~ shaun tenzenmen ~ Leave a comment

You know what they say
Rain, rain go away
Come back another day
But I want it to stay
I wanna get cold and wet
Cos it makes me forget
The heat and the sun
Which spoils my fun

Life In A Tent – 20th September 1986

September 20, 1986January 27, 2024 ~ shaun tenzenmen ~ Leave a comment

I lived in a house
I got chucked out
Didn’t pay the rent
Now I live in a tent

Corkscrew – 19th September 1986

September 19, 1986January 27, 2024 ~ shaun tenzenmen ~ Leave a comment

Corkscrew
Undo
Wine fumes
Consumed
Corkscrew
Job done
Corkscrew
Cork gone

Toothpick – 18th September 1986

September 18, 1986January 27, 2024 ~ shaun tenzenmen ~ Leave a comment

Piece of wood
Bark of the wrong tree
Toothpick, toothpick
Picked tooth, coming free
Resist
The dentist
Superglue made it stick
I swallowed it
Made me sick
Takes off the plaque
With that bark
Colgate toothpaste
What a waste
Toothbrush
In a rush
Pack your pick
