imbroglio in camera

your Möbius stripper's bent for leather

starts over the top with a frock walk out

socks that are rolled off & tossed one by one

a bodice it takes eight bars to unhook

& a bra jammed on the never never

how clever wedged between her toggled tits

& high kicks of shaved stroke unshaven bits

back she's flipped via where's Ms Cutie gone

to the Jeune Femme Se Poudrant of Seurat

or Madame Récamier by Magritte

but no way is she dissing you José

this stripper's loop is only half the fun

the crux of her métier is just when

she's done with undressing it's your turn son

Johann Liss (1597-1631) - the Fall of Phaeton c. 1624 (detail)

Arcadian photometry

gracing the cinders of our stately pile

sits a phaeton coupé on two max planks

who would guess the era we're talking in

anyroad Gaia time to take a ride

get the sweat foaming on Poseidon's flanks

& see how Helios rates her tail spin

you may say such a reckless enterprise

burning up the heavens on empty tanks

will surely end underground in Berlin

but who the hell are we to be so wise

sat on our hands & gathering no thanks

while there are insurance forms to fill in

so launch this solar crate over the side

leave the field behind & score some air miles

any old don rum puss

asymmetrically opposed as we are

to paying out protection insurance

my zero intolerance policy

is don't ask for votes on their resistance

cheers is all we're calling in home grown chaw

meanwhile let's get on with this vacancy

wanted a dude to dis-rail the status

quo with an AC/DC gears riff

that rocks rolls & has sex please but no drugs

who in hell would stay permanently stiff

pumping seed money into Persian rugs

came clean through the sixties without a truss

saying which now we're all back on the bus

clip that joint by the corner slowly Gus
