Queen For A Day |
|
'Have you heard the news?' He said. |
|
'No what's the news?' |
|
He said something inconceivable |
|
with an appetite for more. |
|
It was simplified and pasted |
|
from that waste of space, publicity whore. |
|
It went from Chinese whispers, |
|
to fiction, to gospel truth; |
|
in a matter of seconds, |
|
as the ground swell grew, |
|
'there was no time to check the facts, |
|
there was no room for turning back' He Said, |
|
with a look in his eyes we've come to despise. |
|
All this maths and comprehension, |
|
i wish we'd paid some more attention to the detail, |
|
its imperative for us to move on. |

|
Their eyes met in the back of the room, |
|
between the lights and camera of the human zoo. |
|
An amulet for a vegas bride, |
|
queen for a day, tonight is your night. |
|
This is your moment you can taste i so good. |
|
So good riddance to the lot of you, |
|
to the lot of you. |
|
All this maths and comprehension, |
|
i wish we'd paid some more attention to the detail, |
|
its imperative for us to move on. |
