A Badtime Story Look what I got for Valentine's Day: Lady Luck came along, took my dreams away, And the tears hurt more than a broken nose - I bled from the thorns of a barbed-wire rose. I know that I'm supposed to pray Thanking God for each new day. Would i...

A Bellyful Of Emptiness I'm twenty six years old - please tell me what have I got A monopoly on misery - I guess that's my lot Ten years of eating bullshit leaves it's taste in your mouth And I think the time has come for me to spit it all out... 'Cause at t...

A Broken Promised Land See the red "messiah" high upon a soap-box pulpit Agitating his apostles with the gospels in his hand While apprentice hitlers gather down in inner city subways To immortalise their ignorance with aerosol spray cans. Life is the lesson...

A Clown Of Thorns Walking my personal Calvary mile to a do-it-yourself crucifixion, It's a kingdom of clowns wearing martyrdom's frown - I must fight for my hammer and nails, We're an endless procession of lost, dispossessed unbelievers - Whose prayers go unh...

A Dog In The Manger 2 A.M. a southbound junction - innocence takes flight Common sense has lost all function - stranded in the night. The albatross has flown the nest - he's breaking family ties He recalls his mother weeping with her hands held to her eyes. H...

A Good Day To Bury Bad News Wall "the west' wakes up to a terror attack But they got enough muscle to give it right back Now the warmongers are happy they know that they can't lose They picked a good day for to bury the bad news And all the latest figures ta...

She came looking for position in answer to our need And she was a pretty flower fair as any in the field She burst into the room and we both did feel the rush Had young Rome in tow but we knew he'd get the push It wasn't very long 'til we found ourselves a...

A Near Life Experience Just a blank expression sitting in an easy chair The living incarnation of a world that doesn't care Mesmerized by media lies Now they're "New and Improved" by a cunning disguise It drinks their poisoned water And thrives off noxious ai...

A Room Next Door I stare at fading visions now much fainter than before Of the faces gathered round me and the clock upon my wall My loved-ones stand in mourning but the china timepiece laughs As it counts away the seconds (it knows all things must pass...)...

Welcome back my friends, yes, it's been to long I fear In these sad and stormy times, you'll find a place of refuge here I am your genial host, I trust, a narrator fair and true Though there's nothing new under the sun, it's a storyteller's moon Under the...

Wake up one and all, can't you hear the clock bird's call? Time has stolen a march on us, yes, he makes fools of us all We have to face the world now, pack up all your cares and moans We can't shrug off our duties in the cold hard light of dawn We danced t...

A Stranger In The Garden Silently gazing from the window - My mind detached from space and time. There is a secret only I know - A place where the city lights don't shine. Why don't you come up here with me? Let Aphrodite take you by the hand, And we can tel...

A Survival Campaign So we lie and wait for dreaded and demanding down Come wrest us from our safe and sleepy beds Over by the windown lie the raiment and the weapons That we need to take into this world today Armoured by opinion, with statistic and schoolboy'...

A Well Beside The River A song i dedicate unto those who share my need to give their all - and should they fall strive on til they succeed. though my belly aches with hunger - weary limbs tremble and shiver i'd rather go where waters flow - no well beside th...

A Word To The Wise From far outside Earth's fragile atmosphere It's clearly apparent that the end is near The sleeper wakens and removes His golden casque Vital signs return to his quiescent craft. He is truth - a word to the wise Gods children are so young...

Alone In Death's Shadow Carnal gladiators lie restless awaiting the dawn Slaves to their passion - so eager its will to perform They wrestle the "Double Backed Beast" face their foe hand to hand The arena was life but alone in deaths shadow they stand. You b...

Another drinking song Where they sit around And get a round in while the getting's good They'll make the most until the money's gone They're coming out to celebrate, to sing and dance and to escape A crazy world where everything seems wrong Drinking to forget...

Another Fine Mess A girl read my runes in the warm dressing room, It was then that I started to think There has to be something really worth hunting - I reach for another strong drink. For ten lonely years - that's my reward. My ego and I we have faced many...

Any Old Irony? At the vanguard of a juddering caravan, hurriedly galloping down a dirt-track. Six furtive figures, crooked as Caliban; Smuggling hope to the land of the claque. Weary, hoarse-riders; irksomely blistered. Spent from a decade a-roving the road....

Art Nazi Twist the truth - then twist your arm, It's the Emperor Caligula School of Charm, Don't take his word 'cause it's not worth having it (he's an Art-Nazi) He's a tinpot Hitler gone berserk, A self-made man from another man's work, More tonque in cheek...
