The plane touched down! "Disperse, everyone scatter around, A newly anointed heir is coming to town!"

Gossipers and tea bag ladies inject their venom. Schoolboy bully and the prom queen recite Dante in detention. Foreign exchange students huddle on prayer carpets in a corner. Footsteps echo in Hollywood horror movie theatres.

A chamber maid found a note in room 101, Social media broadcasts it live to some. Chinese whispers fuel the flames higher, eBay auction sells a replica soul to a liar.

Another high street chain goes into administration, I got a link, screw and fixtures for next to nothing. The heir to an empire is seething in frustration, She's got the will but she's got no determination, Mi5 and CIA agents rock her foundations.

I put my ear close to the ground, Listening to the rumours move around. With my fixtures I built a box with sounds, For when Pandora, the heir, comes back to town. I'll put the missing link on her finger Tell her it's ok 'cos everyone, even Zeus, is a sinner.
