Been there

Done it

Eaten it

Drunk it

Almost drowned in it

Nearly died

Praised it

Cursed it

Dodged it

Traversed it

Just you name it

I’ll have tried

Smoked it

Snorted it

Been traumatised by it

Reduced to tears by it

Laughed and cried

Run it

Walked it

Chased it

Caught it

Wished I hadn’t bothered s...

Fake nostalgia spews out from your head

For a sepia England that was never there

Hatred junkie, you know

Where the blood river flows

Feel the bile at your knees

Marching bands drown out your higher brain

Blaring voices drive your soul insane

Hatred junkie, you feel

Like a cog on a wheel

Grinding so out of time – after time

God made you useless

Anaglypta, portaloos

Double glazing, snakeskin shoes

V8 twincam, lightning strikes

Mental illness, Pennine hikes

Great North Runs and parking bays

Eminem meets Peter Glaze

Last bus home and suicide

Cheesecake and formaldehyde

Miniskirts, pay and display

Alloy wheels and Peter Kay

Pop-ups, blouses, USBs

Berlusconi, birds and bees

Window locks...

I’m not up a height when I’m up a height

I don’t take fright

You can feel my might

See that smile – an ocean wide

As I watch man and nature collide

Vistas and blisters taken in stride

I’m not up a height, up a height

Breathless lungs, breathless scenes

Unwind the springs embedded in genes

Tension falls to the fields far below

Where imagined enemies and fo...

Dostoyevski’s Chicken

Ladies and Gentlemen

Boys and girls

In this space and around the world

Raise your hands

Let flags unfurl

For Dostoyevski’s Chicken

She can sing – she can dance

She’s signed up for a comedy romance

A billion web views – not by chance

For Dostoyevski’s Chicken

Here’s a fowl you all can rate

She’ll never end up...

My obsession (again)

I would bear my soul for you

I’m a fool, but what can I do

When I’m

So obsessed with you – so obsessed with you

I freeze

You have broken into my head

Play a god in every fantasy

I’m so obsessed with you – so obsessed with you

I freeze

You’ve the smile of Medusa

So eager to please

Friendly looks just started t...

(Be my) Only One

(For Sue!)

Life pours salt upon my opened wounds

But one bead of your breath

Can cure me of harm

So be my Only One

Unleash your charms

Forever, Only One

Life cries foul upon my fragile soul

But one kiss from your lips

Can cure me of harm

So be my One One

Unleash your charms

Wherever, Only One

And y...

The Misfits (going AWOL)

My head is in the clouds,

My mind is drifting somewhere else.

My ears are on the ground,

My feet are taking me to stranger places.

Is my reality the same as yours?

I don’t care!

’Cos bless my soul

I’m a misfit

Going AWOL

from my sanity,

Watch me fall

I’m a misfit

Going AWOL

from society,

Off the wal...

We’re Northerners, us

We’re Northerners, us

Yeah, we’re practical and 'ard

We gurn through misfortune

As it’s torpedoed through our hearts

Slam us, flatten us, trample us – we’ll come up for more

Even though we’re drowning – oh yeah, oxygen’s a bore!

We’re Northerners, us

Scots, Geordies, Tykes and Mancs

Scousers, Cumbrians, Borderers, proud...
