heads fucked the band ( a m u s i c a l t a i l )
…
heads fucked the band
& heads got lice
mistresses & shops
but in the bellend

shoulders shat the band
then tailed-off into pads

knees peed the band
then teamed up with them bees
the breast is histamine
& knobbles in the breeze
so toes went solo
& got a job & bar
& thought of songs of yon
then twinkled
as a star

saint john's warthog
gargles, grapes & tartan paint
shakespeare's reindeer
scrolling up the avenue
ishtar's fish farm
john the baptist's badger barks
ding-dong singsongs
as pajama's llama moo
stalin's starlings
murmurate a circled-eight
jack sprat's catflap
portals through to timbuktu
brigid's signet
singing in the river mist
vishnu's blue gnu
sniffin' on a stick of glue
big ben's black rat
trembles at a thunderclap
newton's numbat
hangin' with a cockatoo
enki's pet flea
hopping on a hovercraft
sun tzu's shih tzus
warring in the morning dew
plato's stray crow
lasers, lairds & lemonade
voltaire's mole-hole
taming tales of feral shrew
jane eyre's grey hare
boxing on a silver moor
saint john's warthog
saint augustine's hippo - too
