Myxomatosis
The mongrel cat came home
holding half a head
Proceeded to show it off
to all his new found friends
He said "I been where I liked
I slept with who I liked
She ate me up for breakfast
and screwed me in a vice
and now I don't know why
I feel so tongue-tied"
I sat in the cupboard
and wrote it down in neat
They were cheering and waving
cheering and waving
twitching and salivating like with myxomatosis
but it got edited ****** up
strangled, beaten up
used as a photo in Time magazine
buried in a burning black hole in Devon
"I don’t know why
I feel so tongue-tied
don’t know why
I feel so skinned alive."
My thoughts are misguided and a little naive
I twitch and i salivate like with myxomatosis
you should put me in a home or you should put me down
I got myxomatosis
I got myxomatosis
"Now no one likes a smart arse but we all like stars"“
That wasn't my intention, I did it for a reason
It must have got mixed up
strangled, beaten up
I got myxomatosis
I got myxomatosis
"I don’t know why
I feel so tongue-tied"
