UR Toast

That's far too salty
& fish with fingers
When I'm clean
I am burnt
You're so dead
you are toast
and your beans are baked
in tomato sauce
these are the things, that make you toast
these are the things, that blacken you most
these are the things, that burn your toast
these are the things, that don't clear your coast
a lonely sardine in tomato and tin
is never going to do much swimming
don't eat those berries from that tree
words of wisdom passed down to me
these are the things that make you toast
these are the things that blacken you most
these are the things that burn your toast
these are the things that don't clear your coast
don't follow a blind link
you won't end up where you think
you could end up just toast
and if someone wants money, just say no

Wrapped in Plastic

I saw you wrapped in plastic
Laura was your name
obviously the father did it
but no one suspected him
I saw you wrapped in plastic
hair looked out of place
you acted like a drug fueled escort
but everyone said you were such a nice girl
I saw you wrapped in plastic
Laura was your name
obviously the father did it
but no one suspected him
Laura was your name

One Body Too Many

Nothing's changed a bit
well, I like that
you can go and you can run
you can't go you can't run
nothing's changed a bit
welcome back to your old home
no one here to show you
no one here at all
my old room looks so much smaller
I can touch both walls with ourstretched hands
my old house looks smaller
have I grown so much or has everything shrunk
in the wash,
everything comes out in the wash
but there's no dialing tone
and you think you're slowly losing your mind
but 9 doesn't work for an outside line

Mirror Mirror

saw you looking at me
back through the mirror
it wasn't a face I recognised
that face wasn't me
mirror mirror
on the wall
who was that face
who was that face
it was halloween
I'd been wearing this plastic witch mask
scaring people, or at least, I thought I was
they were just pretending, the way adults entertain children.
I'd taken off the mask
walked into the bathroom to get ready for bed
I looked into the mirror and saw a face looking back at me
it wasn't my face, and I wasn't still wearing the mask
if that's what you were thinking.
Shaken, I ran from the room called my father.
He said I'd just given myself a scare
and there was absolutely nothing there
I got ready and went to bed, still thinking about the face in the mirror.
It was real. I did see it. I've never seen it again.
