Fame And Fortune Is A Stupid Game – 20th May 1994

Kurt Cobain, what’s your point?
Couldn’t take the pressure
Couldn’t face the world and his wife
Too much shit said, too much
Put on to you by people you never knew
Pissy schizophrenic, suicide, no surprise
Rock legend dies
The revolution he never asked for
Killed him in front of his follower’s eyes

Kurt Cobain, what’s your point?
Sad loser took the easy way out
Gave up instead of getting away
To take the chance to play another day
Talent gone and forgotten by next century
That’s the waste
And the fame others hope to taste
Will still dangle like a carrot
For the young hopefuls to untangle

Yesterday – 10th June 1985

Yesterday my friend hung herself
She wanted the life of someone else
Lost in a world without any hope
She saw the future and couldn’t cope
That was yesterday

She left a note by her bed
Describing the thoughts in her head
‘Mother, everything’s falling apart
Please look on this as a new start”
That was yesterday

Yesterday I thought she was fine
I understood that she wanted time
But today is there any more?
What does the future hold in store?
