Gaff’swrecked

My house has a roofless part, air of classic splendour

Egypt and old Greece meld in the blender

Garden of statues, sentinels, two of Talos as coastal defense

I’ve got a direct line to Porton Down, they’ll tip me off when it’s going down

Three words: go underground, now

Split the belly of the holy sow, Mithraic wound

All drowning under a blood moon, betrayal’s sound

A tuneless harpsichord played by a clown.


Ask me about a brontannas, just roll another blunt for us

Legs long as a tall brontosaurus, got bronchitis from getting high

Money lost the lot at Punchestown on a bad tip, pawning drip

To repair light fixtures, for now subsisting, existing in the dark

A fist-sized hole in the bedroom wall, a piss-like stain in the hall always

Rent this month is gonna be a ballache

Checking my watch like halfway through track 8 on a bad tape

Got a four track, can’t lack bananas for the monkey on my back

Singing like I’d banked on it, hanging on the high notes

I’m languishing in the violence.
