I’m interested in your dreams
And in your emotions
Ingested your greens
Drank your doses and potions
Mum’s purse was stuffed with
Promotional tokens
Cut out and forgotten
Like my sociable motions
Struck dumb weird blushed face
An unquotable no one
Sucked thumb beard clutched fast
Unapproachable, broken
Brought beers in a bag
Clutched to you side
It split open
Stamped, crunch an explosion
All eyes on the frozen
Figure reposed on the sofa
Supposed to see Sandy there
But she never showed up
We had vouchers for beans
For donuts, Cheshire cheese
I’d breeze round with ease
Like I’m playing the grown up
Aisles seven, five, six
Cross my picks off the list
You get the gist
I’d get kicks from being the
Greatest
Shopper
Best runner
Over long cold summers
My parents confused by the faintest
Doppelganger
I’m present, unbruised drive the ancient
Copper dagger
Into waffle batter
Drop a clanger, act out
Get chewed and spat out
Of the frat house
I was in in a flash
Windows at the back were off the latch
And I forced the gate
Choose love not hate
Check your heart rate
Prostate and phosphates, mate
Hey, so tell me about these dreams that you’re having
You should really sketch them out in a journal or a planner
Don’t worry face down the internal attackers
I like the one with the clown, the turtles and panthers
On a boat, capsized, woe! Though you woke up with laughter
After school I recall your famous small fall
From the top bunk, thud, but kept on with the snoring
Blood dripping from your nose and staining the flooring
No, no, I shouldn’t’ve eaten two full packs of soft mints
Groan, groan, got to get home and get on the toilet
Crude truths ooze loose I always got to the spoilt it
The mood, the taboos or my gainful employment
I used to cruise on skateboards with few friends to follow
Streets all orange and the air full of pollen

I don’t feel like Chicken Tonight tonight
I don’t feel like Chicken Tonight tonight
I don’t feel like Chicken Tonight tonight
I don’t feel like Chicken Tonight tonight

I don’t feel like Chicken Tonight tonight
I don’t feel like Chicken Tonight tonight
I don’t feel like Chicken Tonight tonight
I don’t feel like Chicken Tonight tonight
