ROSES
03:29

|
Put on your rose coloured glasses,
your silver lined garters,
and make the bastards swoon.
Strip back the black stained drone,
Back to the bone,
and start again new.
And watch all the piggies flying,
On a silver lining,
Shining from the goo.
And feed on the cake
that they gave you,
The Queen wants to thank you,
Just for being you.
To live on rations and stew
Is all that I could do, Its all that I could do
And to walk on water for you
Is all that I could do, Its all that I can do.
To turn shit into roses,
A rose bed of atrocious,
So shinny and new.
And to turn trash into treasure,
Always a pleasure,
and a pleasure to do.
Water into wine,
How so divine,
and a cinch to do.
Hate into love,
A sign from above,
And all I need from you.
And he said, And he said,
I took viagra for you,
Its all that I cold do.
Yeah? It's all that I could do.
And I'll walk on water for you.
Everything's coming up roses.

COCE

Café cantante 1909
Café gitaro floating sublime
Style Andalusia born and bred
Café Silvaro blazing ahead
Bravas profound song
Crispin and Flee buzz along
Anti flamenco ‘98
Built on satire and hate
In the café of Coce
Ego charged receptors on
Euphoria can do no wrong
Can say what you want
Can do anything
As sage, avatar, master, or king
Being here and being now
24 hour whirly wow
The longer the line
The faster the feet
In the zone and on the street
In the café of Coce.
Adducted to sex
Or addicted to wine
Addicted to food or addicted to crime
Hedonistic addiction to art and its ways
Is going to kill us one of these days
In the café of Coce.

DR. SPACE TRASH
06:20
|

|
Dr, Space Trash slowly ascends
To where space begins
And atmosphere ends
She whips out her pistols
And points then directly
To the million and trillion
Pieces of debris
Floating high above us
And with her magic spell
Identifies them all
And shoots them all to hell
Dr. Space Trash
Time to clean it up
Time to clean it up
Trash all around
All through the ocean
And all over the ground
And we hear the sound
Of an emergency howl.

WOMANTIC BUTTERFWY

The bitch fest is coming thick and fast and that’s a fact.
There’s going to be no mercy for me, and I know that.
While I tease and tantalise your senses,
You’ll come back with the sharpest of retorts,
But I don’t care, I heal fast and heel you will at the base of my fort.
Say what you want, don’t be shy, say what you want
I am womantic butterfwy I am womantic butterfwy
I love licking the love heart and that’s a fact.
I love lounging in the magic room and he knows that
While I tease and tantalise his senses,
He comes back wanting more and more,
Libido as hero erogenous zones all well known.
Say what you want, don’t be shy, say what you want
I am womantic butterfwy I am womantic butterfwy

PLANNED OBSOLESCENCE
02:08
|
|||
|
Take a look, there's a hole in your stocking,
The ones you bought this morning,
All in the policy my friend.
But still walk down the mall with a ladder,
cos it doesn't really matter,
purposely not to last,
used by date has passed.
Planned obsolescence.
What is Prada? What is Gucci?
Designed product to fall apart in a kuchi.
I want a shoe that fits, I want proper leather,
And proper instructions, not upgrade horror.
Planned obsolescence.
Take another look, cos its not gonna last.
You want something strong, sorry nothing will pass.
The monstrous planned failure,
The piece of shit that you paid for,
That also goes for your computer,
Already in Bermuda,
Your tv and mobile,
Already in exile,
planned obsolescence.

BUTTON BATTERY BABY
06:22

|
Do you think you'd be alive today if batteries didn't look like
A row of shiny lollies smiling with delight
If they didn't look so lovely you'd still be here tonight
And the world would be a better place but angels have to fly
Button battery baby
Reece Elizabeth Hamsmith, Reece's purpose
Mother mission now Reece's law and you at the door
Hunter, Summer, Sarah, Dolly,
Harper, Bella, Hugh, Brittney.
You are a beacon of light shining above your ma
A force of power beyond any belief on foundation of grief
And your graves are honoured in every realm and never again
Should trash take over your heart and bleed you 'til the end.
Tina Barry
2022
The determination of parents who have lost children due to swallowing button batteries has changed laws this year. See Bella's Footprints and Reece's Law.

Madam Super Trash Adelaide, Australia
We are a rollercoaster ride above a nightmare, a bungee jump into a super massive black hole, white water rafting in the
Great Pacific garbage patch, snowboarding on shafts of glass, a fall down a rabbit hole with a lover, a skydive out of a crashing plane, a multicoloured hot air balloon over a war zone. Genre: trash to treasure stuck together with super glue.
Enjoy
