Deer Park

I took a walk down West 11

I had to wade through 500 European punks

In an off-license I rubbed up with some oiks*

Who threw some change on the Asian counter

And asked polite if that covered two lagers

A hospital discharge asked me where he could crash

Have you been to the English Deer Park?

It's a large type artist ranch

This is where C Wilson wrote Ritual in the Dark

Spare a thought for the sleeping promo dept.

They haven't had an idea in two years

Dollars and deutchmarks keep the company on its feet

Say have you ever have a chance to meet

Fat Captain Beefheart imitators with zits?

Who is the King Shag Corpse?

Have you been to the English Deer Park?

It's a large type minstrel ranch

This is where C Wilson wrote Ritual in the Dark

The young blackies get screwed up the worst

They've gone over to the Hampstead house suss

In the English system they implicitly trust

See the A&R civil servants

They get a sex thrill out of a sixteenth of Moroccan

Yes, dear chap, it hasn't changed that much

It's still a subculture art-dealer jerk-off
