Gaunt and tremulous, fragile and strong
Quivering betwixt matter and mind
Slightly sharpened on the end-notes
When by all sense of reason he’d be bound to go down

Slightly sharpened in white suit,
Elegant in suede chair , suits you sir
Mercedes and chablis, champagne for the lady
My dear you mean the world to me

Driver please take me to Assbury Park
For its cold outside and the passage is dark
you will all miss me when I am gone
Scarborough Fair will have nothing on this ballyhoo!

Slightly sharpened in smart tie
I miss you even before you’re dead

Shoes Yay High

When  i met you you had no shoes
I took your socks so you had nothin to lose
Gave you corn plasters as you were a wreck
Toe-to-toe jammin’ like Greg-o-ry Peck

I’m a sole man believe me I aint no heel
Runnin with devil never did me no good
Goes to show the power of a single banana peel

When your shoes are yay high in North Carolina
Certain people will take heed
Archin like an alley cat spyin a panther
you know both of dems a dyin’ breed (and dey knowz it)

Gran’s Remedy aint no cure for the devil roosted ‘neath my shins
Doctor Podra, please please can’t you see the state that i’m in

Well when a sleep-walkin cheetah wakes up,
puts out his butt and decides enough is enough
everybody gotta make their own minds up
cos they’re free as feet footloose and fucked up!

Hall of Fame

lamb is to virgin as virgin is to shepherd -
olive oil is as plain to see as spots to a leopard
A lamb on the lam has a long way to run
i rest my case, you know that you’re the only one
alive and kicking like a deathly mule standing
firing just on one cylinder like a tooth–guard that needs filling

a lamb on the lam has a long way to run
i rest my case, you know that you’re the only one
alive and kicking like a deathly mule standing
firing just on one cylinder like a tooth–guard that needs filling
the last mule standing is as sterile as the first
pointedly pointing our what is not the last may well be the first
spitting tacks, disputing facts like theres no tomorrow
hurry up and finish that last cup of sorrow

Specious allies fist each other in the final hunger games
Let me know whatever happened to dear Leeanne Rhymes
Buster was her flatmate if I recall
I read all about it in the sun, in the Sun filled up with my bladder gall
cab driver, cab calloway on the seizure medication
can you please drop me off at Waterloo station
remember theres a womble the one each for each of us
each one carrying a fetid hankyloload full of pus

to throw in each of our eyes, one at a time,
even whilst Rome burns, feels like acid on Leeanne Rhymes
Buster sticking to the side of your lip like day-old gum glue on the chubby flimsy skin packet
a womble couldn’t find more crap on wimbledon common with a tennis racket

Rob Lamb as a Lamb on the lam I can only say .. run..now…
Barney Rubble is dead, a fiery womble pecks at his seams
he lives in his dreams
how many lonely people ponder what it all means
out the back near the jar by the door with the sewing machine
Legally binding that contract is made of paper

50 or so breweries steam their goods on the coast route
purple haze frankly covers almost the whole district.

Gloating like a feedback loop, giving them back a favour like a sailor’s wheel
Grumpy as a witches brew punching above its weight in the grim reapers wrecking crew
stellar as a lamb on the lam with with a square case full of stolen ham
licking the fat like a cat with the cream only spilling out seed onto the feed-trainer’s all round muffler  cover

made out of a tin can and feeding the plumb bird like its ready to roost,
roosting with its bird-egg like guns on the roof
firing on all one cylinders like a pointing finger ambling fatewise
creaming off the best for last simply for hoops

green around the gills red as a beet
blue as blue can be
pink as a newborn cows teat
high as a kite blue as a nun
steaming like a freshly laid
pile of cow dung

its down pat like a steaming cowpat baking in the field
streaking across the field like you wouldn’t believe
streaky bacon passed through the sieve of disbelief
with a string of pearls which signifies loss to the family
on the lam
like general Steven Segal Hamm
Hammer horror every evening with the baseball bat
Nothing abates base battery like a a hen and chicken factory
Libelous licenciousness,  leave it back in the liquor cabinet

Chasing it like a chasseur chaser leaving on a jet plane
sweeter than a plate of treats oj blueberry sunday
i found my thrill there, i think you may too
lets go watch the submarine  racers and get stranded at the dive-in, what a to-do

That paper’s not worth the paper its written on
spilling out the back passage like Mitt romneys baby cat with mittens oN
she should be wearing kid gloves to protect that beauty
welcome to my nightmare take this ticket to your call of duty

its a fecal matter to be disposed of with care, oh yeah
like it or lump it it seedy and its always there
foaming or steaming, watery or bumpy
love it or leave it you can never save it for later
its done and dusted once it hits the drop-zone
the last mule standing is as sterile as the first
pointedly pointing our what is not the last may well be the first
spitting tacks, disputing facts like theres no tomorrow
hurry up and finish that last cup of sorrow

Specious allies fist each other in the final hunger games
Let me know whatever happened to dear Leeanne Rhymes
Buster was her flatmate if I recall
I read all about it in the sun, in the Sun filled up with my bladder gall

cab driver, cab calloway on the seizure medication

to throw in each of our eyes, one at a time,
even whilst Rome burns, feels like acid on Leeanne Rhymes
Buster sticking to the side of your lip like day-old gum glue on the chubby flimsy skin packet
a womble couuldn’t find more crap on wimbledon common with a tennis racket
Barney Rubble is dead, a fiery womble pecks at his seams
he lives in his dreams
how many lonely people ponder what it all means
out the back near the jar by the door with the sewing machine
Legally binding that contract is made of paper
on the lam

Droopy drawers need some wiping once yer done
always whats with the heads-up on the green detail,
sensing weights like the setting sun
feeding the snail shell and all grunting like a pig on the lam with a side of lamb

to kill a mockingbird is no easy feat,
if you had big feet you could stomp on it from a great height
in the plain day of light, if you held your hand out maybe one would alight,
I doubt it though I don’t think you could stop it swirling in flight

spinning like a dervish-top, round and round like a mixer/blender
to slender to be a gender-bender
a huff aand a puff and the whole house of cards comes tumbling down
like a sandcastle built on feet of clay

its cold and windy outside who’ll your iglesias be bringing down when he comes into town
feelings like a feeling blistering through the windows of your mind
stealing stolen kisses like they were on open display
in the glassy cabinet they were placed in when you first stole them

a feeble paper bag full of coughed up sick blood and mucus
like a wind sock of creamning soda and i quote the accusers
a paper bag of old glory, welting with the stench of older glory
steaming like a milksop, thats the story morning glory

its still the same old story a case of do or die
indifference is always at the hem of your sleeve
spinning like a dervish-top
who are you going to believe?

A View to Die For (rewrite 3)

Filed under: evil, fear, gaga, monsters, People, Psychology, seething rage, Songs, Tide, Time — Stevie McCabe @ 1:55 pm

Demo by the Higgsmen

A View to die for
Its a place without a name
On an unnamed island somewhere
in the Mediteran….

…nian, Key Largo
or another obscure offshore port
Not made famous by Sophial Loren
Or Lady Gaga

It drives you gaga
when evil villains plot your demise
with a crew that is cruel and bejeweled,
with plans to kill you….

For… a view to die for
featherweight bodyguards die off like flames
Take the best, leave the rest
Pure evil is all that remains

But with a view to die for

Pike River City Limits

29 lie under amidst the stream
Elevated to less humdrum dreams
Suffocated by greed and negligence
Superimposed fake intelligence

No dead canary to warn them
No heroes in a cage
Gaseous clay an underground tombstone
A river runs thru it, septic and odorous

Specific warnings noted and ignored
Smoking guns still smoking on the floor
Poisons no more brought back home
Nor bread, bacon, love or ham on the bone

Treadmill of justice

Filed under: 2012 stuff, Hope, humanity, law, People, seething rage — Stevie McCabe @ 12:12 pm

Treading on people all day long
Back on the treadmill of right and wrong
As right or wronged as the day is long
As right as Godzilla, as wrong as king kong
Snippy snidely snipping away
Snivelling simmering pitching woo at the neutron decay
You wait for an hour you wait for a day
I say I say I say I say
Each minute seems to last a day
What do you say to a horse that can’t neigh
Don’t call him a naysayer come what may

Exfoliation with a loofah

Filed under: 2012 stuff, animal, anthropomorphism, beauty, Beliefs, destiny, efficacy, People, Psychology, Songs, Time, Tragedy — Stevie McCabe @ 10:15 am

Exfoliation with a loofah
How hard can it be
Don’t like cricket, don’t much fancy Betchadupa
Scratching at the seams like a buck-eyed dream

From gay Paree she came
Loaded up fully with a 10-inch loofah
Booked out till xmas with her high-price dreams
Scrathing the surface and ripping the seams

Pushin too hard can leave a sever welt
Welterweights scrap over which is worse
Paying more taxes and a shrinking wallet
Or the cold death of the universe

Scraping skin like ajax on steel
Scouring, not harsh scratching that will leave you limp
A positive imprint, a possible match
Looky here, loofah breeder is quite a catch!

Pretty Eyes

Filed under: 2012 stuff, Anger, beauty, Hope, humanity, People, Songs, Spirituality, style — Stevie McCabe @ 3:21 pm

I just want to drink in yr pretty eyes
Lick the pupil and taste the iris
Don’t want to deaden yr pretty eyes
But if they’re dead already, o, Osiris

Now Billy-Ray and Miley had a real thing
But she found out ’bout Billy and Hannah
You come here again without exact change
I’ll kick your ass to Indiana

All across the state line
City limits too
Fighting back tears like a soldier of love
All the while questioning who is who

Fire and ice in your pretty eyes
Tell me where the passion burns
Freezer burns from yr pretty pretty eyes
The table has turned, the butter has turned

Rancid as a rampant Rumpole of the Bailey
Robust in every way but one
Smiley-house gizzards make a lot of sense
When you’re piling the blows on a chum

Taita girls

Filed under: 2012 stuff, Events, fashion, People, Rock, Songs, Space, Spirituality, style — Stevie McCabe @ 12:06 pm

 Demo by the Higgs Boson Precursors

Taita girls – Tight as a gnat
You can’t no tighter than that
Taita girls walk on a tight tight rope
And Nobody knows where the old rope goes

On another planet, on another plantation
Hangin on the bridge near Taita station
Nobody knows what a tight-as show
Taita girls do every week or so

T.A.I.T.A. G. I. R. L. S.
Push me becos I’m close to the edge
Heartbreakers with acute angina
Who could think of anything finer?

Old mr so and so
repeats his story from years ago
Of how a taita lass
commandeered his ass
And the blood-diamond flow
Continued from below

Taita girls stem the flow
A cutoff valve – bandaid just for show
Heartbreakers with acute angina
Who could think of anything finer?

Labour of love

Filed under: destiny, fear, Love, monsters, People, Tide, Time, Tragedy — Stevie McCabe @ 4:35 pm

The darkest time is now
The bleakest day is today
The worst moment to date
Is getting worse day by day

Oh dear lord I cannot pray
I can just say
Spare me another day
I’ve had enough I gotta say

Got to go paint my lips with candy poison
For all the cheating all the reasons
Clapped out jack adder snake in the grass
Sticking your cheat feathers where the sun don’t pass!

Does this remind you of the hoist
Where first you made my lips moist
Flagrantly flailing your arms as you flayed
Ziggy flayed the trumpet , without
skipping a backbeat, or skipping on the front lawn

The zeitgeist maker or breaker creates and destroys
Kissed the girls and made them boys

Lookin for coffee in the caffeine free aisle
Is pretty hard to do
Lookin for love in a love-less land
Is a ludicrous thing to do

Loveless landlubbers locked in long lingering looks
like loose canons ready to let loose their balls
Unleashing the loggerheads of loose change
Labouring over the notion of a notional ocean

Where there’s a will there’s an ocean of whey
Remember it’s only an ocean away
When the ocean is in motion your emotions can carry you away
You know you’re soaking in it, by law you need to clear the gangway

It’s a labor of love, little bird told me
A labor of love, little bird tweeted
