about

for the desert crazies

lyrics

Ladies and gentlemen put your shields down
For the super sale to end all sales
Float over a shop floor sea to the
Secret delights of the fitting room

Fear not that you might not look like those
Emaciated models and mannequins
Or our corset-choked Northern ancestors
Faint and wan and under the thimble-and-thumb
Just float over that shop floor sea to the
Secret delights of the fitting room

Fear not that you might press promising Eastern
Poly petrol fabrics to your private places
Produced perhaps by smiling sweatshop sweater slaves
While farmers burn pure wool in trade war madness
For is not this the stuff of which sweaty dreams are made?

Fear not that someone will mock your choice
For today’s ranges are full of flavours for every palette
Colours for every ice cream cone, patterns for every wallpaper junkie
Logos to match every Jaguar or Beach Buggy
Lingerie to match every hopeful boyfriend’s wallet
Lycra to give you that medal-winning feeling
And lipstick to match your glossy undercoat

Fear not for hanging space as our wardrobes expand
In Narnian exponentials and the Third World fills with
Kindly donated corporate-branded cast-offs while local looms
Stand hopelessly frozen and traditional garb is lost
Beneath this summer’s must-have item

Does our naked beauty still lie mocked by crude boy-men or
Indulged with skimpy little numbers for little girls?
Are we still taken on a trolley-ride far from the warm-hearted chaotic clarity within?

Let us reawaken our spindle-fingers, stretching beyond the pins and needles
Teasing out the fresh-view skeins, unravelling new soft-touch balls of delight
Let us play at unwrapping the swirling silk of our soul
Let us tingle-touch the finest fibres and smell the way the simplest natural cloth picks up our deepest essence
Let us lift magisterially magical veils that sweep starlight in their passing
Let us find ceremonial robes to thrill our inner biker priest-priestess
And night club groove-tubes to enliven our inner swaddled swamis
Shining out from our leather-bound armour-plated halos
To our fairy boots with zip-up suede pom-poms
via our cackling lesser-spotted joy-thongs

for now is the rhyming, reasonable time to get truly attired
spectacularly zootily-suited, expressing our marvellous moment-to-moment selves
swapping and jumbling and sharing the contents of our chests and our drawers
with all the rip-roaring elegance our spirits know to be
our fully-dressed justly-deserved dessert
