You got Manny in the library
Working off his hangover 3:30
You get the spleen at 3:15
But it's 3:13


The mad kid walked left-side south-side towards me
He was about 7
His mother was a cleaning lady
She had a large black dog
And the mad kid said:
";Gimme the lead
Gimme the lead
Gimme the lead";
I'd just walked past the alcoholics' dry-out house
The lawn was littered with cans of Barbican
There was a feminist's Austin Maxi parked outside
With anti-nicotine anti-nuclear stickers on the side
...on the inside and they didn't even smoke...


Anyway two weeks before the mad kid had said to me
";I'll take both of you on,
I'll take both of you on";
Then he seemed the young one
He had a parka on and a black cardboard Archbishop's hat
With a green-fuzz skull and crossbones
He'd just got back from the backward kids' party
Anyway then he seemed the young one
But now he looked like the victim of a pogrom

WINTER #2

On the first floor of the dryout house
Was a replica dartboard
And the man on the floor
Sorta went out of window, over the lawn
And round to the mad kid
";Please take this medallion,
Please wear this medallion.
It's no sign of authority.
Wear the gold and put it on";

So [around the] mad kid
Man on the first floor said
";I just looked round
I just looked round
I just looked round
";And my youth it was sold";

Two white doves cross the sky
There fly krakens
And sometimes, that little.....
Makes me tremble

The mad kid had 4 lights, the average is 2.5 lights
The mediocre has 2 lights, the sign of genius is three lights
There's one light left, that's the one light
That's the science law
