Poems on this day – 21st October 1988

Waiting For You

Just waiting for you to call
I didn’t have to wait at all        
But something said I should hang on     
Now I hope you don’t prove me wrong

Coming Down

Coming down off the ecstasy
Just plain torture and agony     
Leslie Crowther once said to me           
Come on down and be happy   
But all the money in the whole wide world         
Won’t change a thing

Reasonably Pissed A.M.

Hair of the dog
Half-past ten
Reasonably pissed a.m.           
Sat on the bog           
Here we go again       
Reasonably pissed a.m.           
Midday sun arises      
Been up since god knows when            
My memory’s really fading man           
Reasonably something then

Poems on this day – 10th October 1988

Little Fat Lady

Little fat lady, some might say a tent
Can you count up all the money you’ve spent        
Do you remember your lovely holiday in Kent?
When he said OK do you know what he meant?  
Did he ever recieve the flowers that you sent?     
Ladies and gentlemen I have the pleasure to present         
Little fat lady you maybe a little bent

Childs Play

Your kid is now aged three
Twenty years younger than you or me   
Do you think that you’re happy
Do you think your child will be happy?
What have you to offer           
Nothing that I can see
I’m really glad           
That child isn’t me

Red

Bright spark
You took my little red riding manhood  
All is dark    
I know you’d light me up if you could
