Inevitably delayed
Shaman's up in Shropshire and
Rabbi's down in Bow,
I wonder where they go
when they go
on holiday.
We hire out these effigies
without apologies
treat them as you will.
I kneel although my knee's ******* to
a plate inside the bone
and telephone requests to them above
then find that they're not home.
I think to read the runes
or
load them up on itunes
and listen
in-car stereo,
still wondering where they go
on holiday.
Buy a life on Ebay
guaranteed for 60 years.
A way which is anyway
if it's another way
is the way to be,
comfy now?
I knew this was the 'man-flu'
and there was nothing I could do
except moan a bit
which I did
a lot.
I've taken tablets,
Moses
wasn't pleased,
but it was me that
sneezed.
I'm going to bed and
it's only
half past one
Saturday's a bust for me
an eight ball sunk for piracy
I think that I would rather be
in Shropshire or in
Bow.
