Old Comments


Two guys looking at a cricket pitch.

One said, “I’d like to play on this, even if I lost”.

The other guy said, “what pitch”.

Someone compared a political person to a rock group.

The rest of the members said, “we’d have to wait for the next group to invent something but he has to wait for one after to pay him to invent it.

A guy trying to impress a woman stood by the fire buckets drenching himself so she would feel sorry for him.

Guy passing said “you flooded the floor, where do think you are”.

Rogerham Mansions.

Not another he said, “Leftem Mansions you want”

Politician finished off yet another speech and said “that went really well”, they all followed the prompts on cheering, applause, but I was feeling a bit drained afterwards.

Guy walked away and said to his sidekick” I hope he doesn’t realised we’re using his pacemaker to power his neon message shirt”.

All my life I thought I was a fool, then I realised I was a politician.

This is the chat line
Your only as your words
This is the ego
It's all a blur who cares
This is the nothing
This is where you belong
This is the chat line
Where are the visitors are strong

This is where the witnesses
Watch the private club unfold
This is where you are together
Loneliness is old
This is where the quick
Skip ahead in fun
This is the place
Why arn't you having fun

This is your world
We are here by chance
This is your world
Some would like romance
This is the dance
Let your body sway
This is the moment
What is that you say

So the lights go dim
You walk away alone
Did you really try
Are you all alone
Is the sadness hard
Is the feeling bad
Is the life you left
For a moment
Just us sad

Walk home in the dark
Think what might have been
Tell yourself your better
Than those who might have been
Sleep softly in your bed
And face the morning sun
You may not be a winner
But you have just begun
