I GREW UP IN THE UK VOL 2




i grew up in the uk
water out a standpipe
& the ladybird storm

& the national anthem broadcast
every evening at closedown

i grew up in the uk
windsor weddings on tv

their cartel crockery
ubiquitous & mandatory

i grew up in the uk
rolf harris all over tv

drawing cartoon kangeroos
making all the kids happy

remember he sang two little boys
on stage at glastonbury ?


~


& we had cod wars back then
& an oil crisis
that made for thin elvis vinyl

now cod wars are only pending
theres another oil crisis
& elvis vinyl is now fat as the king
