Junio

thats what I call her

Curvaceous outrageous
she’s got all the best bits in all the right places
she’s reet petite the finest girl you ever wanna meet

she’s kind speaks her mind
dresses up fine always polite
and usually right in her candid observations

Junio is useless with phones
she likes Marc Bolan Dire Straits
and whats left of the Stones

Junio
thats what I call her

Junio likes to sunbathe in the garden
gin and tonic in her hand
gets an even sun tan
luxury’s greatest fan

she likes to watch football knows the offside rule
ligging out on the sofa shouting out updates
whilst I’m in the kitchen making food

We have epic conversations nothing’s off the table
the best psychiatrist I’ve ever had
she makes me feel glad all over
Yes she does

Junio and I we are both Geminis
and when we die we’re going up to the spirit in the sky
I can tell her my secrets
she won’t tell another soul
stays in complete control
calm and composed

Junio’s a good laugh
she can take a joke
why the hell she puts up with me
only she knows

she makes me feel glad all over
Yes she does

Traffic Light City

no underground or bullet train
no mass transit system to take the strain
3,600 minutes 2½ days
I never realised I had so much time to waste

traffic light city

no supertram no monorail
Speed cameras and buses empty cycle lanes
two hundred and sixteen thousand seconds 2½ days
I never realised I had so much time to waste

traffic light city

Getting nowhere fast

Sunshine and rain gallery of pain
I should’ve set off earlier and avoided the delays
20mph is the speed I drive it may take a while for me to arrive
I never realised I had so much time to waste

Waiting 60 hours a year for the lights to change
beep beep beep beep yeah
traffic light city
