NEVER MIND You might see me walking round with a slight limp It's not a G thing bruv - I've done my ankle in A bit thrown like the dice in the I Ching I'm not sleeping well, my head is tangling I need an aspirin bruv I need a Saturday A cup of tea to drink, possibly a Jaffa Cake Or just an evening alone I've had a manic day It's been an age since I was chilled enough to mastur… Baby! Come here, I love you, you're my stinky tits You could help me with my problem come to think of it Rinky dink? Sugar plum? Twinkle clit? I didn't mean stinky tits..! Sorry. I've been a dick Sorry! Sorry… That was worse than dreadful It's my stress levels, It's my work schedule At my desk, headful of words Unsetlled, unearthed I'm Dizzy, I'm in effect I'm ineffectual. But come on.. Never mind, it doesn't matter what you look like All that matters is you dance Cos it's a very very short life. I move fast All the flies on me are blue arsed The kid that turned pages til he got to the rude part and hit the kerbs naked with a sock on his doo-dah It's a wonderful night for a moon dance. Cherubims serenade us on a sketchily tuned harp Venus plays a bass string strung between two starts Jesus levitates on a fungus with blue hearts and Sarah Palin's abducted in Utah… Pardon? I said welcome to the Terrordome never give acid to a man with a megaphone He will get frantic and then he won't let it go Have you ever seen a rapper's head explode? ROLL UP!! And when the crowd dies I hope that they've been entertained and found me useful. Like safety information on a train Cos to be truthful, I craved just a little taste of fame Then it hit me - ego is a waste of brain So never mind, it doesn't matter what you look like All that matters is you dance Cos it's a very very short life.

My nana told me it's the little things She held his hand the second that he slipped away and something in him shifted like a lifted weight the little things the imprint his back left in the mattress even when she brought him back as an urn of ashes for the mantlepiece to hold, beneath the picture of the whole family In gold leaf frame, before they scattered She let her husband go close to Logan's Rock Waved her sweetheart away and waited for her own to stop Beating the bottom of the urn till the last burnt bone cinder fell, she'll tell if you ask her The little things She can spin them into epic webs the waves break stones without diminishing her tenderness But her address book's filling up with dead friends Her chest filling with the things she never said to them The little things So now the old girl's blatant You would be too if you had watched the whole world fading Do with the truth what you will She'll hold hers blazing Cancer took her left breast, grandpa took her patience But no bugger took her pride ever - clear mind Though she turns a hundred in seven year's time A century's a whole lot of repetition to live through A lot of channels of television to flick through And her limbs function less efficient than they did do Still it's the little things that stick with you The little things The things you never said enough Things I never said enough: you're a legend love, keep your centredness, your sense of fun It's all a goose-chase when it's said and done and you're right, it's all good As long as you bring your friends along and they know you as a mate to be depended on a maker of memories. And yes you were right It's 20 times better to be loved when you're alive Than idolised by some adolescent sucking egos I've come a long way since the essence up on East Slope Hill I get props, still the flexing isn't me though And I owe that to you - have you read my sleeve notes? I wrote my gratitude to you there - it's simple Thank you I carry you still even now I'm single Even though I don't roll over for a morning hug and find you and we were forced to cut the binds we'd tied to I couldn't find a truth short enough for haiku so now I'll write a lifetime of Lauras into my tunes It's all for you it's really all for you It's all for you love It's really all for you It's all for you It's really all for you It's all for you love It's really all for you x2 … it's all for you Laura, True. Things I never said enough You're a legend bruv keep your dander up, you anchor me there's no granite tough as love for family and even if a cancer comes for one of us the other one will carry on the legacy we're our daddy's sons and that's a heavy flag to wave but look geeze, you're doing it however many saturdays you took E's and chewed your lip your love's far bigger than the drugs are sit and prop up the bar with me we've been living too quickly. That's part of the mission innit? I guess it's alright But I wish we spent more time. and Listen I'm chuffed for you and Miriam You'll make a lush truth for your kids to live in and Sorry I never bought a present or sent a card I meant to the life I lead's a seven nights a week flipping head screw But whatever, there's forever shit to get through Just know how much it is that I respect you And listen. It's all for you it's really all for you It's all for you bruv It's really all for you It's all for you It's really all for you It's all for you bruv It's really all for you … it's all for you Toby. True.
