THREE LITTLE DUCKS:

Fake fur,
Beads and bounce,
With a fierce face and feet,
Moving fast down the street of zebras

(K)

GOODBYE DAVE DAY:

This is a record of all the things we’ve done,
This is done better than the way we used to do it,
This is it,
Is this it?

(K)

CHOCOLATE PAPER BIRDS:

This is running the show,
This is showing off,
This is off the record

(K)

CHOCOLATE FIZZ:

This is a Black run,
This is a Red run,
This is a chicken run

(K)

BLUE #1:

A striped man washes a car with a barefoot boy & buckets,
A shaved head looks for something with an electric ear,
A distant motorcycle engine cuts fast,
Between the end of Spring & the start of Summer,
Small Black flies

(K)

ROCKET STICK:

I’m waiting in the sun,
At the edge of the road,
Between Black wires & birdsong,
A red faced man Bends to stroke,
The spokes of a Silver wheel

(K)

BALLANCING THE LIME PICKLE:

These keyboard fingers play no melody,
Body armour,
Standing & eating,
Eating on the move,
Hitting the ground running

(K)

JITTERBUGS:

People talk power at the station,
Fast hot mouth & fingers

(K)

SIX STRINGED INSTRUMENT:

A peaceful sleep,
A beautiful day,
You on the radio,
Shaking,
Recovering,
Sunlight

(K)

STONE DOG:

Catch a train North,
Walk fast,
See peoples beds on the street,
Under scaffolding,
A cuddly toy,
Toiletries lined up along the windowsill of a boarded building,
Cracks,
Rhubarb & custard,
Breathing the breath of a carriage crammed with strangers,
Smells of body odours,
Scammed on tickets for a dream gig,
Shaking hands,
late night trains home,
pickled

(K)
