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!
