Our best defence is no defence at all

Hi guys, just so you know, because of my job (and my best attempt at a better social life) I won't be posting daily.  Instead I'll try weekly.  Forget that, I'll post when I feel like it.  Hopefully that will be at least weekly.

Song recommendation: Love's the Greatest Instrument of Rage by Thea Gilmore

I heard the deal was done

That it was sealed last night

The red woman stood to take the oath

lt wasn't front page news

She wasn't pretty

These days things are either nothing or they're both

Another sip of wine another card

And then I really have to leave

They saved my place in line

The ugly anodyne

To beg another's master for reprieve

Uhuhuhu uhuhuhu woho.

Well is it just my ears

Or does that beat appear

Just a little quieter than before

I guess we knew the score

The centre couldn't hold

The ladies pearls will skid across the floor

It'll come from Albert Dock

It'll come from Tower Bridge

It'll grab our politicians by the balls

Our quiet stupor our broken culture

Our best defence is no defence at all

Uhuhuhu uhuhuhu woho.

And you can call it progress

And you can call it foresight

Oh I don't know its name baby

But it keeps me up at night

And I'm sure there's something coming

I'm sure it will be soon

That the devils of our time will slouch

Across a blackened room

So take this epitaph

Take anything that's left

I don't want to be here

Come the day

I did my best you know

I tried to swim the tide

But I am just as guilty in my way

For every beaten brow

For every heaving chest

For every shaky word on every page

It’s taken 30 years

And a little pill to learn

That love's the greatest instrument of rage

It’s taken 30 years

And a little pill to learn

That love's the greatest instrument of rage

Uhuhuhu

Uhuhuhuhuhuhuhu

Uhuhuhuhuhuhuhu

Uhuhuhu woho woho.
