(a) Tweet for my suite

Filed under: Ambivalence, anthropomorphism, Collective Consciousness, Psychology, Songs, Sorrow — Stevie McCabe @ 9:13 pm

Tweet for my suite all the way down the line
fingers do the working evrythings fine
its all A-OK, tweet me and pass the dime
no quarter is given or accepted, mutilated or form-fine

All down the tweet-line the lady adelines harmonise
They’re the sweetest things you ever heard, they’re divine
tomorrow the firehose will bring another deluge of kind thoughts
kind, unkind, what kind of tweets whatever you can say is fine

when the bough breaks the tweeters will fly
they flock together when it suits, i do so hope it stays fine
higgeldy piggeldy, a beak pecks at its shell
come out of your shell, birds make this nest your own!

500 baby emus not wanting to unbury their heads
making a run for it, its a no-fly zone
can i quoote your tweet on that to the local press?
no, no, no thats not what i mean by duress

this is for the txt-ers, the sxt-ers, the peter-tweeters
for all the guys who got her number but could never tweet her
the one wanted a limo but got a five-seater
the one who wants to pig out but ended up wearing a hog-sweater

There Goes Mr Two Shoes

Goodie goodie, lets crack a big woody
There goes Mr Two shoes and he’s walkin on water
Goodie goodie, onstensibly could he
buy up this town and put it back together

His silence is golden his gun heavy leaden
ammo out is the scenario he’s dreading
a holster on each hip and a pocketful of clips
greased lightning its square to be pipped to be hip

ketones, totally aromatic and high,
sealed with bright wax, on an all-time high
just caught a glimpse of him steaming past
in the misty mirrors, time moves backwards, forward to past

How can I thank you, Mr Two Shoes?
What is the best way to show my thanks?
Two tankloads of gas, a tankard of beer?
a jingling jangling guitar-song of thanks

crank the engine over, engineers spin past wild
spinning a yarn of hope and blind narrative
wily will smiley killing him softly
farewell mr two two shoes, if thats your attitude

He gets my goat

Filed under: Ambivalence, humanity, People, Psychology — Stevie McCabe @ 5:59 pm

This old man he really gets my goat
Something in the way he does his thing
Whenever he’s around i’m in misery
can’t put a foot wrong without feeling cheated

whispers of a bake-off only just reached me
by the time i get to auckland i’ll be over it
how many suns do you need to make a day
won’t let the sun call me impoverished

he gets my goat he really gets my goat
dunno how he does it, but he does it in spades
I am not afraid, i’m just cryin in the shade
languishing in the shadow of his shade

Brown as blood, Blood is brown

Filed under: Beliefs, Collective Consciousness, Hope, humanity, Love, Songs, Spirituality, Time — Stevie McCabe @ 9:47 pm

Demo by the Two Evils

Everyone knows all blood is brown
I seen your face before, around and in town
Ever been beaten to a lick of your life?
Ever not known what to ‘Like’?

If you never have, come join me
Let my rod and my staff comfort thee
Brown is blood, my baby’s blood
The blood she spill’d for me

Tied up in a teatowel , working 9 to 5
nothin better than stayin alive
its a quarter to three, at 7 minutes to midnite
the clock starts ticking down

At precisely 5.15, my baby awakes from her dream
blood is brown after all, it was all just a dream
now where the hell have you been?
Blood is thicker than water, more liquid than steam

blood is colder than ice, even supercooled ice
its just a phase, just a silly thing who would know
time to stop the clock before
it sets itself back to below zero

Redondo Beeatch

Filed under: Beliefs, evil, Hope, humanity, Love, Songs, Spirituality — Stevie McCabe @ 9:34 pm

my my my, the skeletons shake
eviler than the empire, brighter than 70 suns?
shakier than satans spawn
chillier than the mountain dew

What to do, have a matriarch or a patriarch
chill’d to the bone through no fault of her own
fissionable patter, possibly dangerous, doesn’t matter
its the overarching axis of redondo be-atches

Less evil, more evil, believe it or not, its legal
Two flies in an ointment pot
coming to a sticky end

Less fascia, more fashion, seeping through the teapot
strains of wheat combining
coming to a glutinous end

Angel in a headspin

Filed under: Ambivalence, Hope, humanity, Love, People, Songs, Time — Stevie McCabe @ 5:52 pm

Just got back from woodstock
my feet are sandal tanned
the sundance kid was there and there was
peace throughout the land

lo, the night falls, the moon rises and sun sets
thats how the game is played
i’ll scratch your back if you scratch mine
and theres peace, sister all across the land

my angels in a headspin even though she won’t admit it
all kinds of featured remedies won’t cure what she got
and though i try in vain to ease the pain
my angels doing cartwheels, she’s in a headspin again

Take her out with a single headshot
well maybe head and shoulders
holier than thou, play by Hoyle
Put that queen of diamonds in the next row
