23 Years Too Late |
20-day perch selected, we snail through streets of smoke |
Tilo and Hardcore, Massive Attack and transfer prints |
Fresh from The States with extra fear |
Each suit tailored for silhouette promise |
Copyists target the sun-stung pier |
An unengaged jack demolishes walls |
Of careful construction |
23 years late… |
23 years too late |
Chisel jumping, laid-back pastry |
Naked punks and stone-hard pagans |
Sonic paramedics weep |
Harness short delays |
Fuelled by Finnish rude familiars |
Lead the screw-top revolutionaries |
In the land of hats |
Smith & Wright shoot in from ballistic Berlin |
Fuelled by the Finnish Rude-boy Engineering Front |
In plum-black knit love, they officiate |
Open-plan tendencies, engulf the room |
Enthusiastically embracing, the ziggurat beat |
Head locked in gridlock, oozing through Flanders |
White kicker magic plants poppies of remembrance |
Popeye remembers a cycloptic monster |
23 years late, 23 years late… |
23 years too late |
Chisel jumping, laid-back pastry |
Naked punks and stone-hard pagans |
Sonic paramedics weep |
Harness short delays |
Fuelled by Finnish rude familiars |
Lead the screw-top revolutionaries |
In the land of hats |
Airbrush camouflage |
Cloaked by night, we slip the border |
Collaborative pacts, the ferry spurned, we hit the ramps |
Chaos junctions crash |
Upon a crowd of lost construction |
Russian hotel check-in kitchen |
Expectations, black-knit love |
Reinventing the schedule |
Fun-filled firemen visit the Museum of Backward Hats |
Totally Oscared, the Netherlands are un-tethered |
Rhizomic gastropods interweave slender tails |
Grey hairs genuflect as perforated anarchists |
Lead the Screw-top Revolution |
23 years late… |
23 years too late |
Chisel jumping, laid-back pastry |
Naked punks and stone-hard pagans |
Sonic paramedics weep |
Harness short delays |
Fuelled by Finnish rude familiars |
Lead the screw-top revolutionaries |
In the land of hats |
Airbrush camouflage |
Cloaked by night, we slip the border |
Collaborative pacts, the ferry spurned, we hit the ramps |
Chaos junctions crash |
Upon a crowd of lost construction |
Russian hotel check-in kitchen |
Expectations, black-knit love |
23 years late… |
We enter the hashish Kasbah |
With millimetres to spare |
Citizens of Christiania, the Cannabis Castaways |
Victims of the cookie-cutter crucifixion |
23 years late… |
23 years too late |
Chisel jumping, laid-back pastry |
Naked punks and stone-hard pagans |
Sonic paramedics weep |
Harness short delays |
Fuelled by Finnish rude familiars |
Lead the screw-top revolutionaries |
In the land of hats |
Airbrush camouflage |
Cloaked by night, we slip the border |
Collaborative pacts, the ferry spurned, we hit the ramps |
Chaos junctions crash |
Upon a crowd of lost construction |
Russian hotel check-in kitchen |
Expectations, black-knit love |
Becalmed in green fog banks |
Over baked pastries |
Goodbye… Goodbye… |
Goodbye… Goodbye! |
