Everything i know to be warm is really cold now,
The bosom of the country i love dearly so, how,
Twitter Feeds make you hate your neighbours,
Flick the v’s, gate your acres,
I hope you know your words the weight of wafers,
Nearly thrown out my phone,
Barely grown out my clothes that my mother bought me,
I’m decades old now,
Made me fold out the paper aeroplanes,
Nothing sold, house still standing,
Imagine the fuss,
All that came with it was us,
A brave image of trust in our eyes,
They came timid with lust in their mind,
Its hard to watch, those who used to graze grew to carnivores,
Hungry mouths chew your harness, or,
They knew the garnish for you,
They drew the largest crowds,
They’re selling grief to mourners,
Take a piece of your goods,
Evade the leash and scratch,
Any fucking eyes that see fit to look your way,
Courts take your shoe laces,
You blew traces and it grew tasteless,
You bang your doors and you lose patience,
New babies in old mangers,
Newspapers that sold dangers,
Newspapers that hold cod and chips, battered sausage from a few strangers,
Who saved us,
Bruised talons making noise reaching through cages,
New salons flicking blue pages,
Who fucked who who fucked who and made who famous,
We grew painless, that means no growing pains and getting new trainers,
No moaning, wait, its only passing through the station,
Sprint to the tortoise, you’ll be soon aching,
Limbs in the water, tell me who’s flailing,
Things could be coarser but the brew’s straining.
Bloody nora,
Teabag dodging all the muddy water,
Bloody nora!
