The electric naked morning
lives scared in the window
the dream-sick pain- light shattered
penetrated and dead..........

HOGWASH

Blonde bomb baby,shellshocked
filthy,squeeky clean
turned off my reciever
made me feel so ugly and mean
    Hogwash

don’t spill your guts in my face
cos I don’t need it anyhow
try sensing where its all at
and just stop shitting on my doormat

you make me
so ugly

HOME OF THE BRAVE

Blown astray
on a cold winters day
leaves in the garden
wind blow away
Home of the brave

Gas-station vice
an ace or the snake-eyed dice?
be a local hero
for the rest of your life....
Home of the brave

White parking-lot daydream burning
no sign of the tides now turning
it’s the Home of the brave

FRANCES

Lean on me won’t you,
trust me for a while
she said «I think I’m cured now»
I touched her nimble fingers
she was shaking like a leaf
I suppose she got what she needed
a kid that wouldn’t listen
a kid that had no fear
a woman that doesn’t care....

lean on me ,
won’t you trust me for a while
her eyes shone like crazy emeralds
now the madness is gone
now the halo is gone
no duckling turned to swan
no freedom won
American Dream dream on
Lobotomy gets ‘em home......

WASTED

Such an angry young man
I’ve seen you before
I’ve heard your stories
a 1000 times or more
it’s not worth it
you can’t change a thing
smash a republic-
install a king.
    Wasted

such a content old man
I’ve seen you before
I’ve heard you fuckin’ stories
a 1000 times or more
it doesn’t matter
your  goal are new lies
try see the new generations
through their eyes
     Wasted

ETERNITY


Music put to a great poem by William Blake
A bit on the artsyfartsy side 7 years later,
but cool at the time......
Pitched down to Swans territory,and echoed to death

T . F . C .

He’s a Truly Fine Citizen
he works all day
he leads a perfect life
in every way
he goes to church
he dresses up tight
he rapes his pre-teen children at night
      I don’t understand it

Fucks his daughter
fucks his son
I somehow can’t imagine he’s the only one
It’s a sick world,baby
when 3 out of 10 
molest their children
again,again,agaun.......
      I don’t understand it

listen to me
cos I think you should know
when the pain is sown
it won’t ever go
it’s in shadows
it’s in the brain
how can man impose on someone
a lifetime of pain?
      I don’t understand it
