“All my lovers will be pink and elephantine…”

“And you're standing at the chemist in Boots
Coughing up your guts like you're at death’s door
All this for a packet of Do-Dos
And the assistant gives you a wink and you turn bright red
It's at time like this that you wish you were dead
And you take the whole packet and you feel like you've drunk
A bottle of bleach
And you tell yourself 'Never, never again
Well, not until next week anyway'
And you were never one for holding drink
And you stagger off to the toilet
And you throw up like it was Christmas
And you miss the bowl and you hit your shoes
And there's no paper towels
Now what else can go wrong for you
It's a choice between a cab fare home
And a packet of cigarettes
So you choose and the money sticks
In the machine and the manager says
'Tough shit - drink up and leave'”

“The juice me, seduce me – dress me up in Stussy…”

There is a lot of good music about at the moment and all of the following are either relatively new, or new to me. I make no apologies for the inclusion of Har Mar Superstar and do not claim him as a ‘guilty pleasure’ - he is brilliant. I recommend the English Heretic album to all you Ghost Box fans and the ever-wonderful Saint Etienne’s Richard X remix of Foxbase Alpha called Foxbase Beta is simply sublime.
