Night Drive Neon Stained Skies

Key to things beyond my ken

Obelisk tip is called Ben Ben

It represents primordial land

Song stage on which Atum stands.


Drive what feels like ages

Trees instead of walls still cages

My life a thousand variations on beiges

Need captain’s holiday on a Bejor lakeshore, no room on Risa

Always expecting a downpour, won’t die poor

Silver as a mirror in another mirror

Others flame-flecked like old opals

Some pink as jaipur

Incredible pearls you think they dyed them

Bends immune the types who dive down

Down more often than whore drawers

In my boot got more shit than full diaper.


I hit every go faster stripe 

Owe to the wren boys

I’ve gotta pay the piper

Oh how she ren, boys

Like she outran a sniper.


Engine making guttural noise

Drive fast like Kia Boys

Driving through familiar blocks

I know every inch of my box

Often saw Austin Os 

His Zos Kia Cultus

Not working out for him, he’s paper thin and gets no money in

The avenue he lives on is council, secluded

Occluded by cross streets, devil spots where roads meet

His lost kitschy culdesac

An Alfa Romeo outside a betting shop

A whole alphabet of desires he’s not

Acquiring, lights on the fritz could be faulty wiring

Could be the wages of all that devil dialling

Says it’s all intention but the words are violent

Sky colour of darkthrone covers

Colour of never cleaned ovens.
