Lost games Longer lost rules Night-time crimes Lungs full Of pungent smoke Bellies full of ***** And heads full of Something And nothing A kind of homage To a kind of music Riding across vinyl And even crackling shellac And the dead man's foot Still taps inside the coffin Refusing to relinquish The hard-wired hammer The outlaw life Is hard in the dying                                     By Phil Roberts

HARD IN THE DYING
Lost games Longer lost rules Night-time crimes Lungs full Of pungent smoke Bellies full of ***** And heads full of Something And nothing A kind of homage To a kind of music Riding across vinyl And even crackling shellac And the dead man's foot Still taps inside the coffin Refusing to relinquish The hard-wired hammer The outlaw life Is hard in the dying                                     By Phil Roberts
