Twister

The magnificent structure straddled the river

As i dictated my autobiography to my biographer

When i heard this tune

My title was "renegade genius"

But was interrupted much too soon

Was interrupted much too soon

I received this line



Twister



From me in hampstead he received a letter

I headed it "dear twister"

Up from west hampstead i visited keswick

On permission from the guard

I begun like this but could not continue it

When i heard this tune

(it begun like this but could not continue it)

My ears were burned

By this tune

My head swooned

By this tune



Twister



The train from london on day of lunacy

Was packed with innocents

Children tended by walkman'd parents

Cretins auditioning

For non-existent parts on tv one

The train was a tube

Within the crushing beauty of the countryside

On the london-keswick run



Twister



([mes in background:

My head burned...burned...da da da da..my ears burned..

Countryside has sold out..countryside...cheap phone calls home...

Accent all around..cheap phone calls...ramble..grinning...

Normally..rambled...in my ear hole...was day of lunacy..some things

Like...explosives..of pages turned..shadows..massive fucking noises...pop stars.. heh heh hackles...try mystic meg..twister...rustic town...
