Entrances uncovered

Street signs you never saw

Entrances delivered

Courtesy winter

Entrances uncovered

Street signs you never saw

You've got Manny in the library

Working off a hangover 3.30

You get the spleen at 3.15

But it's 3.30

The mad kid walked the left side, towards me.

His mother was a cleaning lady. She had a large black

dog.

And this day, on the road, the mad kid said to his

mother

"Give me the lead, give me the lead, give me the

lead!"

I just walked past the alcoholics dry-out unit and the

can on the

lawn, was littered with cans of barbican. That's an

alcohol-free

lager. Well, anyway, there was a feminist Austin maxi

parked

outside, with anti-nicotine anti-nuclear crap on the

side.

Well anyway, I digress. The mad kid, two days before,

had said

to me, "Look boy, I'll take both of you on, I'll

take both of you

on." He had just got back from the backwards

kids' party. He

had a black duffle-coat, and a black party

archbishop's hat

with three bars for a skull-and-crossbones. And this

day he

looked like the victim of a pogrom.

Please take this medallion

Please wear this medallion

There's no sign of a cross here

Grab your coat and put it on

Courtesy winter

Courtesy winter

Two white birds cross the sky

Look like krakens at stork times

That little......makes me tremble

Ah! Courtesy winter

The mad kid had 4.75 lights.

And the sign of genius is 4 lights.

Now most of us have 3 lights.

Except some slates who have 2 lights.

And there's one exception,

There's 1 light.

And that is the science law.

Courtesy winter

Courtesy winter

Got it all wrong for me

And it's a fallacy

and it does not stand up

It is the one science law

And is the statement of greats

Winter

Courtesy winter

Entrances uncovered

Street sighs you never saw

All entrances delivered
