Wendy Wetlip stares from a poster,
Ignoring the drawing adorning her smile.
Her lover has shuffled away, Looking the other way
Ronnie the Raincoat hangs out in a book store.
He's never seen his own wife in the nude.
Somebody called him depraved. But think of the money he saved.
Dwarf on a moped speeds through the park,
To Kilroy's Renaissance -- the Temple of Art.
Signs with a flourish and makes it his own, Pockets his pencil and slyly rides home.
Annual cultural African dancers,
Bereft Isabella in rubber thigh boots.
A man was arrested today,
Note to reader: Link in last line to Exploding Sausage film featuring the Bonzo Dog Band "at play" and en famille. Songs featured are: (i) Quiet Talks and Summer Walks (from Keynsham); (ii) We Are Normal (from The Doughnut In Granny's Greenhouse (UK) and The Urban Spaceman (US)); and (iii) Readymades (beginning at 5:10)(from Tadpoles). It's really wonderful footage to watch of a great, inspired, and highly original band. No other group could have or would have dreamed of making the wonderful Readymades. The song's mood kind of reminds me of this.
