Animal Love – 16th October 1986

October 15, 1986April 6, 2024 ~ shaun tenzenmen ~ Leave a comment

You love me like the beast
Tied up, waiting to be unleashed
You love me with an animal fury
There’s nothing you can do to cure me
Of the wounds from your piercing claws
What can I do with this passion of yours?

Definitions Of Normal – 15th October 1986

October 15, 1986May 4, 2025 ~ shaun tenzenmen ~ Leave a comment

What is normality?
Is it each person’s reality?
My normal is not the same as yours
Think of the problems this can cause
Surely there’s no problems in a normal situation?
We have to look at everything in relation
To our own normality

My image
Your image
Ok and au fait
Fashioned and fashionable
Extravagant but fanciable
Your image
My image
Seventeen with seven teens
Modelling themselves on Monroe
Queens of the fashion show
My image
Your image
Au fait

Five-Card Stud – 13th October 1986

October 13, 1986April 6, 2024 ~ shaun tenzenmen ~ Leave a comment

Sitting at the table
Playing for all you’re able
You’d sell your soul if you could
To pay the price of five-card stud
Wheelers and dealers
Big money appealers
You can win, well, you think you could
All for the game of five-card stud

Greed – 12th October 1986

October 12, 1986April 5, 2024 ~ shaun tenzenmen ~ Leave a comment

Your fucking greed
Makes me fucking sick
You fucking want everything
Fucking quick
I fucking hate you
You greedy shit
Fucking stay
In your fucking pit

Sit – 11th October 1986

October 11, 1986April 5, 2024 ~ shaun tenzenmen ~ Leave a comment

Sit
Good dog
Biscuit
Heel
Good dog
Don’t squeal
Obey
Good dog
Now on your way
Bite
Bad dog
Right
You’ve had it
Dog

The Drummer – 10th October 1986

October 10, 1986August 31, 2024 ~ shaun tenzenmen ~ Leave a comment

The drummer beats
To marching feet
Keeps you in time
Keeps you in line
The drummer drums
A bombshell comes
Whistle on alone
Fall from your throne

Leaves – 9th October 1986

October 9, 1986October 10, 2024 ~ shaun tenzenmen ~ Leave a comment

Autumn comes
Leaves fall from the trees
Brown and crinkled
Turn another leaf, please

Tranquil – 8th October 1986

October 8, 1986April 5, 2024 ~ shaun tenzenmen ~ Leave a comment

Everything dead
Inside your head
There’s no sound
You’re underground
You’re undersized
You’ve been tranquilised
You had your fill
You remain tranquil

Push Button – 7th October 1986

October 7, 1986March 30, 2024 ~ shaun tenzenmen ~ Leave a comment

World of automation
Push button sensation
Life in your chair
Rotting without a care
Stagnant brain
Energy drained
Head explodes
As you touch the cathode
The last button that you press
Will put you to rest
