The red-painted Blues

The techno hangover, the morning blues
the same old coffee with the same old news
The senate in discourse, the repubs, the democrats
the life insurance agents and the new high rise flats
the distressed starlets, the drama queens
the delinquents, the junkies, the pregnant teens
the wide screen tv, the new ferrari wheels
the mansion on sale, the business deals
the Gooks, the whites, the blacks and the brown 
the hot beach tv guys, the new chick in town 
the evangelical priests, the holy and the sane
the infidels, the blasphemers, the demigods and the vain 
The gym-regime, the Mcdonalds fries
the little black dress, the perfect zero size
the scoundrels in the government, the slick president grin
the fake little greenhouse, the tempting salesman spin
The esspresso on the go, the scrawny colleague,
the blood-sucking boss and the boss's league
the late night shifts, the aching head
get up from bed, and go back to bed
the banal bedlam, the filthy rat race
the riots, the corporations, the glossy TV-face

It all gets me so down, all the year round
the innate din, the bustling sounds
Then your love comes to my rescue, from the star-lit skies
like satin drapers upon my tired eyes..
