I found the stig



Does Santa visit council flats?

Does Santa visit council flats?


Does Santa visit council flats?
Quite possibly if you ask me
so many crammed into one tall space
one mystery though; the chimney

I ask, how does he get to each one's home?
does he wield a magic key?
I wouldn't like to be the one breaking in
Certainly not to flat 203

to risk ones life but once a year
Leaving gifts under a Christmas tree
not bad work if you can get it
smack heads work as much as he

Without a fireplace, without a mantle
to place the pie and cherry
not much space and the only place;
is apon the stolen Telly

What gifts does Santa leave for them?
Sending messages of glee
I know what 'benefit' Brenda getting
Michael Buble burnt on CD

Well, Does Santa Visit Council flats?
Was the question I posed to thee
visiting those who dodge tax
and wear shell-suit tracks
of course! he love all on chrismas eve

Barefoot

BAREFOOT

One foot in front of another,
Another step takes you further,
Further you walk deeper into my soul,
Yet your presence will leave a hole,
A hole in me that will leave a scar,
'Don't despair, for you will never be far.'
I shall call you Barefoot.

Like feet that tread the desert sand,
Sand where no man's foot has ever land,
A land you have come to make me see,
Our sea, the Earth, the air we breath,
For your journey that will leave us apart,
Ti's But the journey within; your close to my heart.
I shall call you Barefoot.

Time has no meaning when love endures,
Minuets becomes hours on sunset shores,
Surely a smile or a word has reminders of you,
Your path you leave I will follow so true,
True is what you have helped me become,
'Become have I' and now you walk on
I shall call you Barefoot.

Where I am now No.2

Alone with many, 1 ticket please
I sit alone, yet among friends
My audience; they do not know
Another me sits alone, 2 rows down

All us Brothers and Sisters

I am not alone
I feel quite at home

Is this it?



Where I am now #1

On a cold step at Liverpool Street
No one around
11:38 waiting for the gate to open
Free ride home
My heart sitting at the crossroads
Fearing the worst
Couples embrace all around me
I sit alone
On a cold step at Liverpool Street
