Sempreverde

The man from the north enters the tube

Wriggles his way to the perspex cube

The man from the south dissolves in his mouth

A lozenge of Sempreverde

The man from the north and the man from the south

One by the brain, one by the mouth

Climb through the tube into the cube

Of the perspex Japanese garden

And in the pines a tiny sun shines

Birds small as insects fly through the air

The panda unzips the skin of a pig

Flops himself down in the garden

All the young girls fiddle their minds

Jilly and Debbie and everyone's here

All for the Sempreverde

Giants and fairies and strange effigies

Sacred and artificial trees

Dragons and serpents and fish and birds

In the perspex Japanese garden

Otto the rich, Otto the poor

Spilling the stuff on the party floor

The past is so sad, the present is worse

Thank heaven we haven't a future

The world fills with trash and eskimo ash

Clouds of white gas floating in from the past

Crawl to the cashpoint, bring me the cash

And I'll get you the Sempreverde

I said 'I'm going to rape you'

She said okay

I said 'Don't say okay because then it's not rape'

She said 'Okay, I won't say okay'

On two tabs of Sempreverde
