Rubber soled trainers broke the brick Like the boom of the people tether the streets Tight strapped caps wander and roam Strolling the daylight for a place of their own Screeching and whirring filling the room Monoxide smog frogs that cling to their moulds We the people; hardened in soul A splash in the distance tearing a hole Enoch and Edna turn in their grave Darkened cobble flattened; all glazed Mirrors and cladding click into place A village that weeps, constant refined Express the formidable now done and alone Never your own EST marks the alleys; so nuanced, so cool If you knew the truth; that's a tenner! You fool
