Early Warning

 

I'm not easily provoked

But let me say in warning

Though afternoons and nights are fine

Avoid me in the morning

 

 

On Reflection

 

The mirror lies

I'm sure of that

I've never been anywhere

near that fat.

 

 

 

 

The Drum Lesson

 

 

 

Astrology

I know it's nothing more than harmless nonsense

As any self respecting cynic knows

It's hocus pocus voodoo mumbo jumbo,

I mean of course apart from Scorpios.

 

 

Battery Chickens

 

What goes on in the chicken's head

As it's laying its eggs and being force fed

I know that it doesn't have much of a brain

But the one that it has got, must be insane.

 

 

 

The Ideas Man - "Truth"

 

 

 

Starvation

 

The fatuous woman says to her friend

as the restaurant comes in sight,

"I can't see how half the world's starving my dear,

This place is packed every night!"

 

 

Bureaucracy

To you I'm a very important chap

As you are to the chap below you

So he'll end up doing the difficult jobs

The chap above me didn't do.

 

 

Nugget and Zoid Zoid

 

 

 

The Toothless Tiger

The toothless tiger

rears its head

as if to roar

but yawns instead.

 

 

Sophistication

To share in that innocence just for a while

I asked what was making the little girl smile

The three year old said, in an off handed way.

"The guy in the bear suit's apparently gay!"

 

 

 

Playing In A Surf Band

 

 

 

Greed

I got the cake and then the cream

So how ungrateful I must seem

But I won't rest until I've got

The goddamned cherry that goes on top
