This Life

Oh Man I think I'm going insane, I tell you,
Sitting here watching David Blaine, I tell you,
Got me thinking, just who is to blame, I tell you,
I'm just falling I'm choc full of shame, I tell you,
Not my fault because I fell for the game, I tell you,
Something wrong in just the way that we live, I tell you,
There's no way that this is how we should be, I tell you,
Please listen, 'cos I'm bearing my soul, I tell you,
We got to change the fucking way the way that we live, I tell you,
Stress and horror just isn't the way, I tell you,
Something wrong in how we're raising our kids, I tell you,
Pedophiles just preying on kids, I tell you,
Got to get out score some Class 'A's is normal, tell you,
No it isn't can't you see something wrong, I tell you,
Kids are running the streets and neighbourhoods, I tell you,
Can't you see that this is just not the way, I tell you,
Gotta grow up fucking lay down some law, I tell you,
Take the streets back 'cos we done it before, I tell you,
Once we done it Politicians are next, I tell you,
Maybe then we gonna get us some sense, I tell you,
Turn it round and get those kids fucking safe, I tell you,
Only then we going to start with the change, I tell you,
If we can't look after today then tomorrow is fucked, I tell you,

As you slide down the Bannister of life, be aware you're gonna pick up a few splinters in the arse along the way.

Vapid Valley Girls

Yesterday I was at the Roman ruins on the Palatine hill. It was amazing. So much around us, the Colosseum in the background, the Roman Forum in front of us. It was astounding.

I cannot comprehend why some people feel the need to use words, which aren't even real words.

The City

A tower block, A wisp of smoke. Homeless people, Sometimes taking 'coke' Traffic jams, Polluted air. Everywhere you look, There's people there. Phones and iPods, All sorts of things.

I Watch Movies.

Cool kids can't cry. Rock-stars should never be sober. Time is never enough. Drugs are hip. Show me your body an I'll be yours (for the night). Don't forget to bring the beer.
