I graduated from the college of high fashion
                                                  low morals
                                                  small waists
                                           and expensive tastes

with a sixth sense of style and crippling debts


By golly, it's a long way d
                                          o
                                            w
                                               n

to a life that's vicious and pernicious
                      vacuous and flashbulbous

to standing here in this skatepark
on the coldest day of the year
in these teentiny pants

spraytanned to darkest oompaloompa


Do you like my binbag style?
No of course you don't
Why would anyone
apart from a binman?

Sling me in the back of the van
and drive to Shetland
