subhuman

So ladies, fish and gentlemen,
Here's my angled dream.
See me in the blue sky bag,
And meet me by the sea.
-- Eric Bloom / Sandy Pearlman (BÖC) 1974

in particular

lying on my back, i heard music.
felt unsure and catastrophic.
had to tell myself it's only music.
it blows my mind, but it's like that.
-- blonde redhead (2000)

pineapple head

detected as flat
no longer is always flat out
got the number of the getaway car
didn't get very far

as lucid as hell, these images
moving so fast like a fever
so close to the bone
I don't feel too well

sleeping alone for pleasure
the pineapple head it spins and it spins
like a number I hold
don't remember if she was my friend
it was a long time ago

and if you choose to take that path
I will play you like a shark
and I'll clutch at your heart
I'll come flying like a spark to inflame you

-- Neil Finn (Crowded House) 1993

broken head

step inside my head
see how much i see
feel how much i feel

show you something good
a planet with no roof
the leading edge of truth

a post-euphoric grin
an astronaut i've been
astronomic feelings

-- catherine wheel (1993)
