In animal-adorned Babylon of the dancers, wiping away my Alexander tears with a vellum world map

Having my latest strop, what she did I can’t recall

Too late for retreat, dogged onward

The Earth whole, or the sea’s freedom

Clouds like a stomped Yop on cheap lino

Blue as a Chartbusters shop

Backdrop a cheap matte painting I’m at pains to say

Nothing computer generated, city’s least popular place

The good, there were no great left

None came to replace them

Palefaced junkies hooked on the drugtaste

Emaciated, like starving Athenians

During the wars called Peloponnesian, so Thucydides reasoned

Delinquents, flats dilapidated, more development needed

Vacated, we’re on permo vacation

Drug taking, only liquids and we lace them

Never stick with no bacons

If you want your few quids taking, yknowwharI’msayin

All of flats have fleas, some empty decades

Make you wheeze, badly decayed all green 

Mold growing, shit’s glowing

Need ripout and spraying, everything must go

Everything rewired because it’s dangerous and dated

Wear caps selling capsules, to Garda consternation

Boosters and amps, practically given away

Youngsters doing exams wanting mad skunk, all sprayed.
