Dress nice today, please

You tell me show up trim for the family pictures

I show up Clay Collard muffintopped

Swilling drinks, all the trimmings

Collar flapping open, all buttons open this instant; sesame

Described me pregnant with a beard, crying

Yeah that’s him, please understand he’s Irish

He can only do harm, he’s harmless

He’s an accidental pirate

Roll a neverending joint I’ll never tire it

When it comes to huffing, I’m Tyrean Heracles

Clearing out more than Augean stables.


I binned your stuff even if it had a label

I practised tornado kicks on your brittle trestle table

I burnt your bonsai tree, shit was like napalm popping off in miniature ‘Nam

I kept that long sable jacket for myself ‘coz I look badass

Probably think I look mentally unstable

Bucephalus first time out the stable, going crazy

Invited to the table, decades showing respect

Kneeling, giving fealty, paying off

Who said dreams can’t be made real, made Lord of the Rings didn’t we?


Wrestling Achilles, axe kick wearing cleats on Troy’s beach

Cleon of Syme cleaved, clean out, by Polydamas spear

He and Hector drank beers together in better years

Odysseus spent eight years with an Irish woman, I’ve done ten

And won’t even mention how that felt, such copious venom

She took my black denim jacket and wore it grey

She took my back like a blackbelt Maia, now my hair is grey

Loving you takes an age, lasts a second

Takes an age tomorrow and tomorrow

I’m practising illegal eagle shit

Crane stance hidden dojo below Harcourt

A move where I tear away the groin and remove the heart simultaneously

You can’t train it in eighteen countries, but Israeli grenadiers learn it 

My mate Ernie got a hold of the manual from 4chan, so we’re journeying it

Further than a journeyman

Do you know where that phrase came from?

To earn a day’s wage, apprenticed to do, from French journée

Preparing to join Shredder’s Foot, shredding a man’s foot with foot stomps

Against the cage think we’re playing Primal Rage, you had no controller.


Land a knee but Herb doesn’t wave it off, Bisping

Top of the Pops I just mushed my chops, lipsync

Had him on skates falling around the ice rink

Hessians dying without a Kaiser, speaking German at Mount Vernon

Heard a nun praying, someone’s son’s last sun at Verdun

Spring came twice, my verbal is fertile, my foliage is verdant

Verdure on the verge like Grinch skinned and murdered

I’m verger this here church yon blasted heath

Ledger filled my adventures, some invented

Sometime bound and published, peradventure.


Feet before the fire’s heat what remains of the day

You giving me instructions, you inviting ructions

I’ll fuck up the whole function having erupted

I’ll rupture a buster bloodvessel, sent a speaking cheeky fellow hell

Uppercut lifted him high, his empty shoes behind, rapture

Grabbed ya, warned you on Whatsapp to stop capping

Barely male, Samael chancer offering my Eve apples

You don’t need me to punch you, Aoife grapples.
