"Piss off!" he says "We're not here for that...we're not here for that!"
Hollering prince hustlers of black phantom clouds & alleys
We're here to drown man
We're here to wallow & thrust in technicolor lightning neon
Watch compressed masses assemble, watch arcade dramas unfold
Watch & watch & watch some more.
Three piece suit throwing up on pavement shoes heretic friend laughing his ass off
Hands on fire in a hallowed rain
Pouring
Wild & unstable as dynamite.
We want long legs around our necks
Trapped in the 50mm eye
Of sunless days & immaculate shut downs.
Drenched maniacs fighting off furies
To rise
& rise & ride
In wet chaos
Of Shinjuku.
