Braindeath – 9th July 1984
Playing with your brain
Knife in the head
Twist the blade, turn the handle
You’re certified braindead
Playing with your brain
Razor blade instead
Slice and splice, soft cool edge
You’re certified braindead
Lobotomy, lobotomy, lobotomy
13th June 2023 – I couldn’t fathom the use of lobotomy to help people with mental health issues. Thankfully it doesn’t appear to be in use anymore.
CB Freak – 8th July 1984
Jolly Roger
Pork pie bodger
The whole caboodle
And fried poodle
Sweet sweet daisy
Crazy crazy crazy
Life on the rig
And an Irish jig
CB Freak at the end of the day
CB Freak, CB Freak, what’s that you say?
13th June 2023 – Jasper was really into CB when I first met him and it was a bit of a news item at the time though I never really found it that interesting. Talking to strangers you couldn’t see seemed a bit weird. Now look at what we have! We barely talk to friends and mostly talk at strangers!
And The Romance – 2nd July 1984
The romance is the wreckage of your desire
The wreckage of your romance is your desire
I’m going higher, I’m going higher
And the romance
The Comic Show – 30th June 1984
It’s the question of leadership again
All change after election
It’s another comic show the media exposes
Rammed down our throats and up our noses
The comic show – in The Star, The Mail, The Guardian
The comic show – in The Express, The Times and The Sun
Lord God Tomato – 26th June 1984
Some people worship God
Some people worship more than two
Some people adhere to the bible
Some people just don’t care who
I worship – the Lord God Tomato
Eating tomatoes is a cannibalistic venture
This is how we are put to torture
Made to eat our own kind
Though some people don’t mind
The bible bashers have got it all wrong
They’ve been in the dark much too long
The Lord God Tomato is right
We don’t really have to fight
Further – 25th June 1984
Take me for a ride
Then run off and hide
Proving that you’re blind
Suffering from no mind
You can’t see any further than your nose
How Many People Are Like Murray? – 22nd June 1984
What will happen to you
In the outside world of ours?
Will you find a girl?
Live your darkest hours?
Settle down, settle down, settle down
What will Murray do?
How many people are like Murray?
Take a look at yourself
What will you do?
12th June 2023 – Already writing to myself in disguise.
Playground – 21st June 1984
Kids out in the yard are having the time of their life
Kids out in the yard are having the time of their life
Don’t tell them of the things to come
Enjoy yourself while you’re young
Die before you’re old
If you don’t wanna be told
Kids out in the yard are having the time of their life
Kids out in the yard are having the time of their life
I Wake Up Every Morning – 18th June 1984
I woke up to find no one there
And looked around in despair
There was no one to see anywhere
I lost my head and did not care
I touched my head and found it dead
Picked my brain which was insane
Touched my face which was out of place
Touched my and to my alarm
I woke up
I wake up every morning to the same boring day
