Kings
‘neath summer evenings streaked with blood
A thousand years ago now
We drank the beer, we drank the wine
We drank the whiskey too
And by God, I swear that we
Were Kings then me and you.
With sirens, nail-bars, brawls and horns
The Brixton night descended.
The future I no longer feared,
The summer it was new
And, by God, I swear that we
Were Kings then me and you.
The conversation laced with smoke,
The music never ended.
The evening slipped through night to day,
The hours they all flew
And by God, I swear that we
Were Kings then me and you
Kingdoms last forever when
The Kings are on their throne
I never thought to question that
I knew it to be true
And, by God, I know that we
Were Kings then me and you
We were Kings then me and you

Diamond Heeled Shoes
In Tartan suit
You take the stage,
You strut and stride
Your fashion show
In hand-stitched shoes
With Diamond heels
That shine so bright
you power pose
And you speak that word
‘Austerity’
With a lip-curl smile
And a cold, dead heart
And they bay like hounds
When they hear you say
That fucking word
‘Austerity’
And your diamond heels
Oh they shine so bright
Every time you say
‘Austerity’
Let’s see how they shine
when you burn in hell...
