I'm not the man you think I am...I am a poor freezingly cold soul...I have just discovered that prudence never pays. Now, we must wait for the right time

I'm now fighting wars on two fronts, dear reader. Going to university every day is now becoming more of an ordeal than usual (and I'm not just talking about having to leave the house at 7.30am). The aforementioned parasites of society (the firefighters) have partaken in the second installment of their strike, despite the government having upped their offer to 16% over two years rather than 11%. It's sickening.

So, not only am I risking the fear of fire whilst travelling on the underground, I am also living under the terrorisation of the al-Qaeda apparently unleashing cyanide on underground stations. It was only London to start with, but now they are targetting Glasgow it seems, due to the fact that security is less severe. I thought they'd struck today, but alas it was a false alarm - just a very smelly carriage. I'll live.

I think I'll end with a wee song I wrote today. I hope you like it.

She's got another fantasy
She lives in flat number twenty-three
Picked first prize for carnival queen
And now she takes her clothes off

Collects the covers off her magazines
She longs to be another teenage dream
The problem is she's turning forty-three
She still takes her clothes off

She got the nickname "Porta Bubble Joan"
They found her dead, dead as nails at home
And she said "I'm gonna be another Marilyn
Bleach my hair, and get real thin
And everybody's gonna wanna dance with me"

She loved to have her little fantasies
She longed to be the wife of Jimmy Dean
But Jimmy's head sits on Jimmy's knees
She loved to take her clothes off

Police are looking round at twenty-three
They found her hanging from her swollen feet
They saw her dance last on Woolworth Street
She loved to take her clothes off

She got the nickname "Porta Bubble Joan"
They found her dead, dead as nails at home
And she said "I'm gonna be another Marilyn
Bleach my hair, and get real thin
And everybody's gonna wanna dance with me"

Everybody wants to be the carnival queen
Everybody wants to be the carnival queen

We all read the books

  • Here is an even better song that I wrote this morning, sat on the toilet.

    Somewhere on the water-front
    Johnny's hiding with a gun
    Swears he'll shoot any man who tells his story -
    he ain't sorry for what he's done.
    He broke into a drug store
    Just to cure a daily need.
    He didn't mean to shoot the guard,
    But he was blinded by greed.

    Oh, Johnny, Oh Johnny.
    Oh, Johnny, Oh, Johnny.

    See that nun - she's his sister,
    She doesn't know that he's gone bad.
    And when they told it to his Poppa
    It drove the old man mad.
    Just like his Momma warned him,
    From her dying bed,
    It's alright to lose your heart,
    But never lose your head.

    Oh, Johnny, Oh, Johnny.
    Oh, Johnny, Oh, Johnny.

    Lookout! (Guitar solo)

    Now the cops have got him surrounded
    And he doesn't have a hope.
    He wonders how he could be in so much trouble
    Over just a little dope.
    5 to 1 he gets away
    They're the odds I'm gonna give.
    5 to 4 they blast him away,
    3 to 1 he's gonna live.

    Oh, Johnny, Oh Johnny.
    Oh, Johnny, Oh Johnny,
    Oh, Johnny, you better run.

    Back in the alley where he was slain,
    I thought I heard something move.
    Inside a trash-can lay a heart and chain,
    The picture had been removed.
    Just another juiced up junkie,
    Looking for a bed.
    It's alright to lose your heart,
    But never lose your head.
