The Spoonbill Generator

After Reality, Interregnum

She plugged it in, she switched it on       [Roland ]

And realigned thigh strap.       [will h ]

Angelic name belied again       [Apsley ]

She knew just where to press       [Beefy ]

For maximum ingress       [Apsley ]

She plugged it in, she switched it on       [(trad) ]

And then I heard it slap!       [Apsley ]

And fizz and lastly pop       [Beefy ]

The smell of ozone crisp       [Evan ]

Mixed with the taste of sweat       [Beefy ]

Brought on by threat       [Apsley ]

Small wonder it went slap!       [Beefy ]

She switched it off, she pulled the plug.       [will h ]

She drew a mighty breath       [Beefy ]

And kissed me on my tensed-up neck       [Apsley ]

Then whispered in my ear:       [Beefy ]

Seen solely from the rear,       [Apsley ]

You make me want to pull the plug       [Beefy ]

Envoi:       [Apsley ]

During the blackout of sixty-five       [F ]

We were lucky to get out alive       [Beefy ]
