-Ugly Rumours-

Ugly rumours

Long since forgotten

Or explained

Checked out and

Never came back

They bought the album

Turned the trick

Then moved on

Like the roomers

Needles dangling

From their junk heavy arms

They shuffled away

Pushing their shopping carts

With not a second of fame

Walking the City streets

You might still

See one around

-Crumble-

Crumbling towards nirvana

Will I make it?

Or will I fall apart

In front of the finish line

Am I really one

Of the last generation

That must meet

Oblivion

On its terms?

And not on mine?

I want more of a future

In my future

-Chloride-

In Chloride, Arizona

Phillis the chicken

Went missing

It’d been in the papers

If Chloride had a paper

I would have take the subway
