I'm digging a hole dirt in my shoes In a world of shadows I've ran out of booze I'm digging a hole digging a grave Scratching out the soil with the crap they never gave And the world will never see me ever again Unless my bones are dug up in a thousand years All the antiquarians will kneel and pray As my skull grins back from ear to ear Dead dead dead still digging What are you doing my pretty one Can you fill the hole when the digging's done? Can't blame her running I understand No one digs digging with a dying man Nobody will remember my epitaph Unless my bones are dug up in another age All the antiquarians will kneel and laugh As my skull grins back in a silly way Dead dead dead still digging I've relinquished my dreams I've laid them aside The glamour and the horror the wind and the strife Are you better off in Yemen with a will to survive Or living at The Dorchester desperate to die? Dead dead dead still digging credits

You're just another easy-going phoney Projecting your dreams onto mine That Library of Babel Facebook shit Contains every truth every lie Cruelty is the law pervading all nature and society It doesn't help you yuppies teaching your kids that Happiness is money and greed You're pissing superfluous As more plastic's chucked in the sea Plastic people mince by Romantically fucked beneath the Eiffel Tower On a Tuesday night The silence of infinite spaces So dark so soft so odd The streets are strewn with body parts For some cunt of a God He's pissing superfluous Eking a living of loneliness Puzzled by the cold inside I'm dying my death in the darkness here - my suicide Scraping the ground where the barrel was Laughing where dogs go mad Oblivion claims even stones and names It'd be funny if it wasn't so sad I'm pissing superfluous Necking moonshine made with the yeast from an old pair of underpants Snorting lines of powdered Lemsip A member of the public grovelling publicly to Meghan Markle I sold my shadow to a man in grey He was the patron saint of all atheists Who are the newsagents always on the phone to anyway They're pissing superfluous

Assignation - we say we'll meet up I've a methodical grasp of my clock But exceptions can occasionally be made I thought I felt a frisson of surprise You weren't supposed to be on time I couldn't comprehend what I saw I'd just assumed your timekeeping was poor I will never underestimate Billy Idol again I thought I felt a frisson of surprise You weren't supposed to be on time The lesson we've learnt is entirely absurd Hypothetical truth of the mocking word I thought I felt a frisson of surprise You weren't supposed to be on time

I'm on an art trip I'm on a guilt trip I'm despised 515 beards coming at me through the skies They have to kill to prove themselves I have the will to do it myself Spite's the only thing keeping me alive Disgusted I'm crushed in I'm on my knees If the boredom doesn't kill me it'll be the corporate greed Priests pervert all the good we have Marketing executives are just as bad Scorn it all for the library The endless shouting tomorrows Baby talk social laws sensationalist lives Wherever there's a glimmer of hope we'll soon see idiot eyes Phoniness I can't deal with it Give me a drink so I can face this shit The endless shouting tomorrows

I see stupidity everywhere I look I'm drowning in it Berated by vulgar minds, hated on sight ARE YOU A BOY OR A GIRL? - Here's my TWO FINGER SALUTE I don't make mistakes but when I do I make them count Mock on, mock on, just remember this Mock on mock on, a cut is a kiss You laugh because I'm different but that's ok I'm laughing at you cos you're all the same It's a bummer you got older, your priorities seemed to change From drink and drugs to consumption of a very different kind Liberal ideals wither to personal gain At 17 is this how you imagined it would end? Here's my TWO FINGER SALUTE Mock on, mock on, just remember this Mock on mock on, a cut is a kiss You laugh because I'm different but that's my way I'm laughing at you cos you're all the same They shout STICK LEGS! at me A legless tramp laughed at my trousers Coming at me like an excommunicated priest Can't you handle my flowery blouses? Dear lady from another irritated soul I've seen our future in the toilet bowl Dear Lord I'm bored of the life I've been lent For me contempt is heaven sent Mock on, mock on, remember this Mock on, from you a cut is a kiss You snigger and yack yeah it's kind of cute It means I'm on the right track TWO FINGER SALUTE
