(Brush the Cobwebs out of the Sky.)

I suckedThe moonI spokeToo soonAnd how much didIt cost?I was dropped fromMoonbeamsAnd sailedOn shooting starsMaybe you’ll

be presidentBut know

right from wrongOr in the flood you’ll

build an ArkAnd sail us to the moon

E(Honeymoon is Over.)

We’re rotten fruitWe’re damaged goodsWhat the hellWe got nothing more toloseOne gust & weWill probably crumbleWe’re backdrifters.This far but no furtherI’m hanging off a branchI’m teetering on the brinkOh HoneysweetSo full of sleepI’m backsliding.You fell into our armsWe tried

But there was nothingWe could do

All evidence has beenburied.

All tapes have been erased.But your footprints

give you away soYou’re backtracking

E

(Little Man being Erased.)

Something for the rag &bone man

“Over my dead body”Something big is gonna happen“Over my dead body”Someone’s son or someone’s

daughter“Over my dead body”This is how I end up getting

sucked in“Over my dead body”I’m gonna go to sleep let this washall over meWe don’t wanna wake the

monster“Tiptoe round tie him down”We don't want the loonies

taking over“Tiptoe round tie them down”May pretty horsesCome to youAs you sleepI’m gonna go to sleepLet this washAll over me

Page 5: 15 Digital Booklet - Hail to the Thief
Page 6: 15 Digital Booklet - Hail to the Thief

Are you fracturing?Are you torn at the seams?Would you do anything?Flea-bitten? Motheaten?We suck young blood.

Won’t let the creeping ivyWon’t let the nervous bury meOur veins are thinOur rivers poisoned

We want the sweet meats.We want the young blood.We suck young blood.We want the young blood.

E

(Softly Open our Mouths in the Cold.)

Genie let out the bottleIt is now the witching hour

Murderers you’re murderersWe are not the same as you

Funny haha funny howWhen the walls bendWith your breathing

They will suck you downTo the otherside

To the shadows blue & redYour alarm bells

Should be ringing

This is the gloaming

(The Sky is Falling in.)

There’s a gap in betweenThere’s a gap where we meetWhere I end & you beginAnd I’m sorry for usThe dinosaurs roam the earthThe sky turns greenWhere I end & you beginI am up in the cloudsI am up in the cloudsAnd I can’t

& I can’t come downI can watch butNot take partWhere I end & where you startWhere you you left me aloneYou left me alone.X will the mark the placeLike parting the wavesLike a house falling into the

sea

I will eat you all alive

And there’ll be no more lies

E

(Your Time is up.)

Are you hungry?Are you sick?Are you begging for a break?Are you sweet?Are you fresh?Are you strung up by the

wrists?(Fois-gras style)We want the young blood.

(The Boney King of Nowhere.)

In pitch darkI go walking inYour landscapeBroken branchesTrip me as I speakJust because you feel itDoesn’t mean its thereJust because you feel itDoesn’t mean it’s thereThere’s always a sirenSinging you to shipwreckSteer away from these rocksWe’d be a walking disasterJust because you feel itDoesn’t mean it’s thereJust because you feel itDoesn’t mean it’s there

There there

Why so green & lonely?Heaven sent you to me

We are accidentsWaitingWaiting to happenWe are accidentsWaitingWaiting to happen

E

(No man’s Land.)

I willLay me downIn a bunkerUnderground.

I won’t let this happen to mychildren.

Meet the real world comingout of my shell

With white elephantsSitting ducks.I willRise up.

Little babies’ eyes.

E(No no no no no no no no.)

I don’t know why you botherNothing’s ever good enough

for youI was thereAnd it wasn’t like thatYou came hereJust to start a fight

You had to piss on our paradeYou had to shred our big dayYou had to ruin it for all

concernedIn a drunken punchup at a

wedding

Hypocrite opportunistDon’t infect me with your poisonA bully in a china shop

When I turn roundYou stayFrozen to the spotThe pointless snide remarksOf hammerheaded sharksThe pot will call the kettle black

It’s a drunken punchup at awedding

(Judge, Jury & Executioner.)

The mongrel cat came homeHolding half a headProceeded to show it offTo all his new found friendsHe said“I been where I likedI slept with who I likedshe ate me up for breakfastshe screwed me in a viceAnd nowI don’t know why I feel so

tongue tied”I sat in the cupboardAnd wrote it down in neatThey were cheering & wavingcheering & wavingtwitching & salivatinglike with myxomatosisBut it got edited, fucked upStrangled, beaten upUsed as a photo in Time

magazineBuried in a burning black holein Devon“I don’t know why I feel so

tongue tiedDon’t know why I feel so

skinned alive.”My thoughts are misguided &A little naiveI twitch & salivatelike with myxomatosisYou should put me in a home

or you should put me downI got myxomatosisI got myxomatosis“Now no one likes a smart arse”

“But we all like stars”That wasn’t my intentionI did it for a reasonHe shook hands with the crip-ples &He gave them all milkHe did a few card tricksFor his mafia geeksBut now“I don’t know why I feel so

tongue tied”

E(As Dead as Leaves.)

I’m walking outIn a force ten galeBirds thrown aroundBullets for hailThe roof is pulling offBy its fingernailsYour voice is rappingOn my window sill

Yesterday’s headlinesBlown by the windYesterday’s peopleEnd upSCATTERBRAINThen any fool canEasy pick a hole(“I only wish I could fall in”)

A moving targetIn a firing range
