Little Black Book (2000)


tube train grinner

late night tube train laughing jag
for nothing else will do
i'm way too pissed and hardly missed
i'd die before i'm through

grinning at the strangers
like i'm stretched upon a rack
i'll grin at you until i'm through
don't care if you grin back

so stare into your paper
play with your new mobile phone
i couldn't give a flying fuck
i know i'm not alone

the geezer on the other side
is grinning just like me
his smile is broad and can afford
the glares of such as thee

i'm dragging out the bottom now
there's little more to say
just grin and grin and you will win
i mean it. hey hey hey...
