$3 Cool
Last night in the taxi,
In my lap you were happy.
The asphalt never sleeps;
Sirens sing blue murder streets.
Now I’m holed up
In this hotel room,
But when I’m full of holes
What’s a grown man to do?
But it’s like this:
Like dead skin tossed to the wind,
Like a hook at the corner of my mouth;
It always tears something out.
And an empty elevator,
A lost brother in hotel walls…
I write on serviettes:
“$3 shades for All”.
Like a soldier with brain damage,
It was good whilst it lasted.
And it has been said to me:
“Experimenting in fake suicides,
responding through your eyes”
Miles and miles of scenery
And all of it between you and me.
But I still tear away and travel
Living on my $3 cool.

The SWEET SIDEKICK
Everyone knows you’re my sidekick
Everyone knows that you’re with me
Everyone knows that I like it
Everybody can see
She says we’re cute.
Not everyone makes me overheat
Not everyone makes me dance all night
Everyone here is with me
But everyone knows that you’re my sidekick
She says we’re cute
When I need help with keys
You’re dancing around my sleeve
I give you a gift so secretly
You’re my special accomplice, I wish, I wish
Everyone knows you’re my sidekick
Everyone knows that you’re with me
Everyone knows that I like it
Everyone knows that you’re with me
Everyone orbits, everyone leaves
But you’re not everybody
You’re on my side

Whatever happened to Mr Partyman?
Whatever happened to Mr Partyman?
He used to wear a badge saying “Party Animal”,
Used to wear a smiley badge upside down.
He has a watch that looks like a dollar,
And stories just as well-used and shiny.
Whatever happened to him lalala?
He took refuge in some Asian pornography
And a job with small pay but good security.
There are pock-marks where his face used to be,
One for every film heroine he ever loved.
Last seen in a scene in a street of crocodiles,
Waving his shoes in their faces and laughing like a harmonica.
Whatever happened to him, eh?

It's Tough for Brutes

IT’S TOUGH FOR BRUTES!
If it’s young toked tears
on Pancake Tuesday
If it’s a fuck you Friday
If it’s nameless but paranoid
If I am weak for passion
If I’ve no place in the situation
If I am hard to fathom
Call my mum
When you teach a guy to swim
You’d better dive with him
When we are ghost-hunting
For the open-hearted ghosts
When we are sewn together
Without truly understanding
If a bad mood leads to love forever
Call me. Call me.

EMPIRE OF KISSING
In the empire of kissing
Some do and some listen
And if you can’t make a decision
Why don’t you sit right next to me
And go ahead and lean in?
Kiss me
It’s always on my list
Everybody needs a kiss
I guess it’s just that kind of day
And every time we kiss
I swear it halves our age.
Kiss cute
Go ahead and lean in
Kiss me
