Scornocopia

	Your rough beauty catches my breath
	Trashed flashed and too much make-up
	Spiked-heeled sky-scraped
	But baby you got some guts
	With your toothy grin around your gun
	What did you say?
	Wanna die young, die young
	That’s what you said
	That’s what you did
	You’re such a cliché
	Behind your mirrored shades
	Well it’s been no laugh
	In your oxygen mask
	You suffer your last gasp
	Strapped in
	Draining
	The stuttering light fades at last
	With your burned-out
	Country club superstar looks
	As the rock cooks
	Cocktail hour smile collapse
	Slack-jawed black-eyed excess
	Yeah baby you’re a total knock-out
	Remember what you said to me?
	Scraping the gutter
	For hard-ons and hardwire
	In the guitar lazy night
