[00:14.62] Retell the old tales
[00:16.69] Retail’s complete hell, we need some detail
[00:19.78] That’s why I’ve been staring at the stem of this plant
[00:22.95] For like the last day and a half, the last day and a half, the last
[00:28.51] Now the three sided coin buys the bow legged calf
[00:32.75] And we’ve been sucking out the milk
[00:34.71] From its mother’s teat incessantly
[00:36.93] So come on, pump us full of nothingness
[00:40.27] And hear us sing the melody
[00:42.65] And watch us dance the thin line
[00:45.23] Between the in thing and integrity
[00:50.07] Vacuum-packed, shrink-wrapped, wartime spam-bots
[00:53.80] Following the stories of the day
[00:56.22] In a hands-off, dandruff-in-your-sandwich kind of way
[01:00.09] Infinite distraction
[01:03.58] Now the distance between objects
[01:05.40] Can be measured out in fractions
[01:07.38] But the distance between people
[01:09.53] Is a scale that we can’t balance
[01:12.05] We’re frail, our hearts haven’t had time to try fathom
[01:14.94] The scales of old dragons are nails in gold coffins
[01:17.81] This island of England
[01:22.08] Oh, England
[01:25.10] We set out from this place
[01:27.25] For murder and murder
[01:31.42] And then we squared it away like it did not occur
[01:35.90] Now when people are lost, they need people to join
[01:41.78] But beware of the three-sided coin
[01:46.40] And when people are hurt, they need people to blame
[01:52.44] But beware of the fear you can't name
[01:59.59] I take the bins out, it’s raining
[02:02.78] The kids are on the pavement with their hoods up
[02:05.08] Waiting for buses
[02:06.73] And on the radio, someone’s complaining
[02:08.95] Saying until now, they never discussed it in public
[02:13.21] Same thing as yesterday
[02:15.16] Careful with the hot tap, cold to burning in a second
[02:19.89] Clothes on, stare in the mirror
[02:23.34] Aware of the process of life slipping out of the eyes
[02:28.05] Deodorize
[02:30.36] Mentholated paste on the bristles
[02:32.66] Scrub the enamel, now shoelace
[02:35.89] Hands like somebody else’s
[02:39.55] Where are the hands from before?
[02:42.44] I was 10 years old once
[02:45.87] Life got quiet last night
[02:49.94] Station platform
[02:51.86] Coffee from the man in the hut with the stutter
[02:55.45] I see a friend from school, but we ignore one another
[03:00.03] I flick through the papers instead
[03:02.86] Aching legs, pounding head
[03:06.37] I can’t wait for the weekend
[03:08.94] I’m staying in bed
[03:12.32] In the mouth of a breaking wave
[03:16.55] In the mouth of a breaking storm
[03:20.20] Shaken, thinking something is coming
[03:25.42] The sky’s an unusual colour
[03:28.55] The weather is doing unusual things
[03:31.16] And our leaders aren’t even pretending not to be demons
[03:36.85] So where is the good heart to go but inwards?
[03:41.35] Why not lock all the doors and bolt all the windows?
[03:45.89] All I am are my doubts and suspicions
[03:50.24] I against you against we against them
[03:55.60] This is how it begins
[03:58.14] And this is how it will end
