The car finally burned out around 3. The blue beacon | |
of a silent patrol car threw new shadows into the street | |
turning the window into a flickering monitor screen. | |
I'd seen the kids torch the vehicle before I left on a | |
nightly surfing run to a cybersex site in Chile. | |
It wasn't as if they were getting rid of prints, everyone | |
knew it was them. They didn't give a shit. They just | |
wanted to see the flames, to throw a bit of light on a | |
situation. I looked up the hill at the spread of the estate. | |
The streetlights glowed like campfires of an army on the | |
eve of battle or fireflies trapped in the canopy | |
of an immense jungle. | |
Jungle, young mental jungle, | |
Here in the jungle, in the jungle | |
Where men don't cry and husbands lie and you never have | |
to justify a kickin. | |
When mates jump in to save your skin if a chib is ever | |
pulled out in a square go. | |
Fish | |
Jungle ride, jungle ride tell me when it's over. | |
Jungle ride, jungle ride tell me when it ends. | |
Oh here she comes round again, here she comes round again, | |
here she comes round again, here she comes, here she comes. | |
The glazed eyes of porcelain clowns stare skywards at clouds | |
of goldfish madly circling their own silent plastic worlds, high | |
above the children who stuff ping pong balls like pills | |
in the mouths of slowly rotating heads. | |
Intentions true as the arrow's flight wins a cuddly toy | |
to while away an evening. Outside this ring of light | |
he'll claim his prize, she'll sport lovebites just to | |
prove to all he's been there. | |
Jungle ride, jungle ride tell me when it's over. | |
Jungle ride, jungle ride tell me when it ends. | |
Oh here she comes round again, here she comes round again, | |
here she comes round again, here she comes, here she comes. | |
I crept along the edges of the parade, staying glued to the | |
shadows where the dogs slept uneasily on their chains | |
I followed the drums and the pulsing light until I came across | |
a clearing in the centre of which was the attraction. | |
And then I saw her, an angel in a chariot, her hair | |
trailing behind her like the tail of a comet. And I knew | |
that she was mine. I knew that we were destined | |
to leave this place together. We didn't belong to this | |
carnage and the knowledge of escape was the only thing | |
keeping me sane. But for now I could only watch and | |
wait for this was an arena I dare not enter. | |
On the rim of the machine the animals had gathered. | |
Big cats at a waterhole waiting on the weak and wounded | |
to stagger into their territory so they could exercise | |
some violence and feed their starving reputations. | |
No climbdown in this standoff with the world. | |
They already know that they can never win the war | |
but in this battle they're gonna do some damage. | |
The pack will follow the stragglers into the dawn. | |
Young mental jungle. | |
Jungle ride, jungle ride tell me when it's over | |
Jungle ride, jungle ride, tell me when it ends (rpt) | |
Here she comes round again, here she comes round again | |
Here she comes round again, here she comes, here she comes. | |
