I stayed drunk and roughshod awake and i was cycling on a plane and far abroad i heard you say you lot liked me.
We drifted to a party – cool.
The people went to high-sounding schoolhouse.
They made their paints by mixing acid wash and lemonade.
In my encephalon I re-adapt the letters on the page to spell your name.
I establish an Ezra Pound and made a bet that if i plant a cigarette i'd driblet it all and ally you.
Just and so a song comes on: "you can't e'er get what you want" – the Rolling Stones, oh woe is we, the irony!

In my brain I re-arrange the messages on the folio to spell your name.
We caught the river boat downstream and concluded up beside a squad of aroused footballers.
I fed the ducks some krill then we were sucked confronting our will into the welcome doors of the casino.

And information technology'south going pretty inexpensive you say? "Well it's a deceased estate….aren't the pressed metal ceilings great?"
