[Intro]
Bankbusted nuclear detergent blues
[Verse 1]
This evening snorted an overdose of washing powder
Thundercrackling offset litho plates
Churning silver news screams
For the media magnates mangles
Arteries of the city, electro-shoveled
Through megalithic milliards
Of brain-raping PR laundromats
Washing "whiter than white
And purer than pure"
Thanks a bunch, Tory Blur
Where Ye Olde Tea Shoppes
Are tomorrow's tsunami wrecks
Whеre a barely elеcted few
Artful dodger divers
In smooth smarming league
With Formula One busses
And global arms profit drivers
Contrived and connived to survive
Way above, defenseless
But unfazed sea-beasts gently luddite
And lucid beyond the liquidator reams of avarice
As my pen runs out of so-called
A hundred percent washable quink
The upturned bathtubs of blue chip bubbly
Swell and sparkle and seethe
And pop, fizz, gush, foam, turn
Leaping
[Verse 2]
Salmon pink, swirling
Frothy, ballooning and bubbling
Ballooning and bubbling like a child's soap bubbles
Excitedly fluted
Chasing lamb-flecked sunset vapour trails
Of phonograph light
That filters winedusk dreamer's high hopes
[Verse 3]
Strutting out up shady lanes
Joy-buoyed up to surf
And so smoothly crest
Luminescent rocking radar waves
Of ever young love's vernel vistas
That wave by wave
Drop by drop
Bid fair to effloresce
To effloresce
Even the creepiest East-end ganglands
Boogie festooned club rooms
[Verse 4]
Glass-clink toasting
Twirling pirouhettes
Balletic and jungly
Jiving the night away
Delirious couples
And congas eeling
Flailing, capsizing drunk
Spliffskips on high seas
Ebbing, flowing, breaking
Ebbing, flowing, breaking
Hoosh, hoosh, woosh
Hoosh
Hoosh
[Verse 5]
Till revelers all danced out
Glimpse from penthouse windows
How the high-rise tides mug neighboring Telecom towers
And hack proud Sky TV tentacles down
To smithereened dishwash pulp
[Verse 6]
Yo! The terminally power-cut madding muddle of the overhead by-pass
Limos dispersed midst vulcanic Babels
Of ruined computers and banks
Weapons factories and palaces
Bastions of government and betting shops
And routine intercourse of waterlogged rubbish with burst bellies
Of global free-market's waste food-froth foam
Rancid buttertombs hysterectomized to pollutant landfills
Land fills hard by the acrid stench
Of thrown up technicolor dreams
The lees of crashed out last orders
In jobs worth adult despair
Despair as of a squeezed middle loaner
Tendering cut-price curry bags home to the Missus
Beaten up by BNP thugs
Down the derelict tube station 'round midnight
