This Is Reality, Your Reality
1.
I slobber my cup of tea the whole world enjoys it with me
the specks in your hair my wife is delivering a baby
when she’s finished she wants to talk wants to leave
wants to marry that TV millionaire
I am general Nuttavic playing karaoke in the world’s theatre
I am that mercenarry whose blood’s on your remote control
I am that psychopath they release on Castaway island
I am that serial killer Big Brother’s in danger
I commit suicide against the World Trade Center
relax after the commotion at the Westbank
your neighbour is watching you
dial me for First Aids as in accidents
I am Coco the Hospitalclone with the Downs syndrome
love your neighbour and your nation loves you
2.
famine in London war in Bradford
global warming in TV-land
there’s so much going on
and I heard of it heard of it
there’s conflicts in Royal Class
riots at the Mont Blanc euro’s top
it’s all happening now right here
and I don’t know what to make of it
Eskimos torpedoed a tourist icebreaker
Bush lets some scientist clone him
so we never have to live without
dial me for First Aids I’m your accident
this is our Last supper
before a good night’s sleep
3.
Today’s star is yesterday’s neighbour
Good morning what do you think about the weather?
How does it feel to be the weakest link?
do you always give up that easily?
Do you really think your man
will return home to you?
you look like shit and you’re
constantly nagging about your problems
I’ve got a collegue who fucks hamsters
to appear on television
does anyone know his books?
I’m desperately seeking too
there’s a thought constantly
beating inside my skull
4.
I lost track
on the one way I singled out
leading to that just cause
leading to that perfect world
I lost track
got distracted on multiple choice
where I can’t choose right
where I can’t choose at all
my life’s a supermarket
the shelves are overwhelming
twenty brands of emotions
twenty brands of phobias
left on the shelf?
and still I can’t make a choice
