Call me John I'm dying of shame
Self respect is a hideous game
A lonelier worm you couldn't find
Severed in two but still alive
I write my diary in the hand of a girl
The arrogant, innocent headstrong Jill
She's fond of books and the British Museum
She doesn't take cues from you, me or them
Oh! Jill are you really there
Take no heed of my distracted stare
It all began as a trivial lie
When you brought me back from the edge of life
Oh! Jill are you really there
I think my head's up in the air
It's not my aim to trivialise
But you brought me back from the edge
A savage hope, a secret smirk
My room mate found my peculiar words
He's only gone and fallen in love with her
Chuck another coal on Christopher
No feeling can live too long
In this well of seclusion
Who's that raving at my chamber door
It's Jack and Jill forever more
Oh! Jill are you really there
Take no heed of my distracted stare
It all began as a hideous lie
When you pulled me back from the edge of life
Oh! Jill are you really there
I think my spirit's beyond repair
I've locked my cell from the inside
Come and see me Jill whenever you like

TikTok Twat

Got so many filters on
My face looks barely human
Bathroom mirror sex attire
For the validation I require
Kissing boyfriend on a beach
Bikini arsed - turgid peach
A perfect life is a perfect sham
We all know this from Instagram
But after all it's worse than that
I've just become a TikTok twat
"When in Rome..."
I'm not in Rome you idiot
I'm in a carpark all alone in Rusholme
Tragic attempts to be amusing
Represent my self-abusing
Every day I grow bizarre
I'm gonna be a viral star
Of a biometric data hunt
Run by the Chinese government
Yeah dancing for an autocrat
I've just become a TikTok twat
Shudder as I realise
Where I am and how I arrived
The rocket was about to crash
But Elon needed a slash
Don't worry said the airhostess man
Affix this bicycle helmet while you can
And you will yet live another day
We surely won't miss that towering runway
The best way to become a Tory is to read and get rich
All the cute bands get it right
Stay online, stay on side
Words must surely not include
Obscenities - well fuck you
Your modesty is a work of fiction
Please accept this malediction
Starved, too hot, too ill, too tired
Best part-timers I’ve acquired
I'm out of this world you're not wrong
I'm clearly from Olympus Mons
My silly japes all fall flat
I'm just another TikTok twat
