Norman’s New Chin

Folks, back in 1990 I believe, I was in school at the time, and had a friend who was a year older than I, we had just returned to school after the summer holidays, and in walks “Norman” who now, had a goatee!

Someone said to me, “Did you see Norman’s new chin”? I laughed and instantly thought that would make a good song title. So, 6 years later, I finally wrote on about it.

Norman was an academic guy, wore vests, leather jackets at 16 and a keen music collector, in metal, weird noise and alternative stuff. Ya know, Nick Cave, Pixies, Black Sabbath, Celtic Frost, Death in June, Swans, Whitehouse and the Bee Gees (kidding)!!

He also had many books, some highly classed literature, satire, and even sonnets.

So, I wrote this I think in 1996, just outta high school then. Sshhh.

Norman’s New Chin

Retaliated names

quickly styled

up in the air vents is Crispo’s Child

less halo’s and painted thumbs

a scrotum

displayed as Jesus baby tree in May

six suburbs on his goatee!

Isn’t it fair

to say he’s pressed

new results

to the one’s in vests

corridor necks fled from stiff necks

to reach for roamers

and cuckoo brides

who shade unhappily in Arabian times

I bent Crispo’s child!

Robust Geckos and girlie guts

singing photographs and ariel sluts

collected songs

floating tongs

blood from the sword

will split these words accord

so concentrate, yeah concentrate!!!

Well, there ya go. Just some random observation, thrown into a quick 2 minute song!!!
