euro communist/gucci socialist - By John Cooper Clarke

Recommended Posts

Paragon   

"..euro communist/gucci socialist

for a modern home and cheap electricity

streamlined functional neat simplicity

put yourself on the slum clearance list

dial a dialectical materialist

find out what your net potential is

get married to an existentialist

don't doubt your own identity

dress down to a cool anonymity

the pierre cardin line to infinity

clothes to climb the meritocracy

the new age of benevolent bureaucracy

 

i like to visit all the big cities

museums and municipal facilities

i strive for critical ability

i thrive on political activity

i'm alive in a new society

i arrive quickly quietly

the car that i drive is the family variety

roman catholic marxist leninist

happily married to an eloquent feminist

a lapsed atheist all my memories

measure the multitude's deafening density

psycho citizens are my enemies

crypto nazis and their remedies

keep the city silent as the cemetery's

architechtural gothic immensity

a new name on the less-than-kosher list

the euro-communist / a gucci socialist.."

The above bit is the bit I always remember and smile at. Cooper is right on the spot...

 

 

Here's another one: TW*T!
