big town blues (iii) — use of weapons

when i was youth
another kid said
he saw me
as captain kirk

fecking eedjit
but i tell you something
i still love the complement
it’s totally wrong

i have no career
of a mythical hero
i’ve fenland meandered
I’m a nowhere man

anyway    ANYWAY
i’ve seen the rebooted trek
fucking idiot’s still wrong
my ego’s still glowing

the myth is a hoot
the comparison’s bollocks
but i like the idea
of doing the plotting

to command my own chair
i’ll make my own chair

make my own chair
damn you banks
