Man on the bus got hurt
On his way to work
Hit his head on a rail
His head was pretty frail
It didn’t do him no good
But I don’t think he should
Really make a fuss
That man on the bus

Thank You Very Much – 14th November 1984
The man fixed the lights
And he was pleased all right
Thank you very much
And we’ll be in touch
The man fixed the shower
And fixed the power
Thank you very much
And we’ll be in touch
A letter from far away
Came in the post today
From someone who got in touch
Well, thank you very much
Dead Thoughts – 13th November 1984
Ban the bomb
Or bring it on
I hope they drop one
On London
Time is running out
You’ve heard it before
About the threat
Of nuclear war
I hope they drop
A bomb on my head
It’ll be an advantage
Being dead
Cash In Hand – 12th November 1984
A problem
Spending
Sleeping
Going to spend it?
In pocket
Spend it
A problem
No cash left
A problem
Spending
A problem
Problems
cash in hand
all you can
only safety
Well? Maybe?
into the shop
It’s not a lot
Debts mount up
and no luck
cash in hand
all you can
debts not paid
won’t go away
Swimming In A Sea Of Content – 11th November 1984
No life belt here
No rescuers near
One by one dropping into the sea
A sea of perfect harmony
No crashing waves come to kill
No serpents to bid you ill
No need to save the fool
Cos I’m swimming in a swimming pool
What’s Going On? – 10th November 1984
Have you ever felt like you don’t know what’s going on?
Do people ever look at you like you’re doing something wrong?
Do people ever look at you and don’t like your face?
Have you ever felt really out of place?
Will some people not accept you for the things you do?
Will some people not understand cos you are simply you?
Do you ever feel like crying cos of what other people do?
If you’ve ever felt like this then I’m just like you
25th July 2023 – Questions, questions, so many questions.
Appreciation – 9th November 1984
Can you appreciate
I’m in a state?
What can I do
To please you?
Can you appreciate
Not complicate?
But I feel this way
No matter what you say
Can you appreciate
It’s not too late?
Can you appreciate me
Just by what you see?
Can you appreciate
And concentrate
On what’s inside
That I can’t hide?
Can you appreciate
Then deliberate
About what I should do
To please you? Can you….?

I Feel – 8th November 1984
I feel rejected
I must be obsessed
Must be you
I want the best
I feel heartbroken
I must be annoyed
Must be you
I’m feeling paranoid
I feel in my head
I must be true
In my arms
I feel you
23rd July 2023 – Love seems to be a theme around this time. I had no idea what was going on or what I was doing.
Open Up – 7th November 1984
Give me a kiss, give me a kiss
Chance to good to miss
Give me a kiss, give me a kiss
Chance to good to miss
Open up, open up
Out of luck, out of luck
Open up, open up
Out of luck, out of luck
You wouldn’t open up to me
I was so disappointed you see
Show me love, show me love
Open up, open up
Biting tongue, caressing tongue
Something wrong? Something wrong?
23rd July 2023 – Trying to figure out girls, before trying to figure out myself.
Happen – 6th November 1984
At last, it finally happened
It was too good to be true
I’ll never forget that moment
When I whispered ‘I love you’
And I had to stand back
To see the look on your face
And I was so relieved
That it wasn’t out of place
22nd Jan 1998 – Well, interesting to read that one back. Not sure I had fallen in love at this stage or was just getting ideas off TV! It sure was hard to say goodbye to you this afternoon at Town Hall. I’m glad we have so much fun together even if sometimes we don’t have anything to say or just crap on about nothing. Everything feels so comfortable with you – like you say comfortable silences. Of course, we have a lot of deep stuff to talk about too and I know what you mean when you say you want to tell everything – that’s how I feel too. I am completely open to you – will tell you anything, everything etc etc blah blah. Crapping on now. My heart is with you – enjoy yr weekend in the mountains – I’m wishing I was there sweetheart.
23rd July 2023 – I was projecting and dreaming somewhat. Not somewhat but absolutely!
