PARADOXXX

The Rock Hotel Café

(Kate Bush might have given him his full name, Heathcliff)


Just a note to tell you I’m working
At the Rock Hotel Café,
Cliff the Boss has taken me off serving,
Says my adding takes his profits away.
Cliff as a class is obsolete.
It’s all Surplus Value anyway.

Sandy pays me thirty plus board,
A cupboard above the bar,
Says it’s all the Hotel can afford
With her swimming pool and caviar.
Sandy as a class is obsolete.
Come Morning they’ll be just one star.

Cliff was the local bad boy,
Sandy the owner’s daughter.
That gold-ringed nose has cost him
All the Born To Be Wild he taught her.
The Rebel as a class is obsolete,
They’re Black Sheep to the Altar.

Just a note to tell you I’m working
At the Rock Hotel Café,
Cliff the Boss has taken me off serving,
Says my adding takes his profits away.
Cliff as a class is obsolete.
It’s all Surplus Value anyway.


Still I’m eating well, mum, fried breakfasts,
The mushrooms are magic too,
The Gorbals kitchen porter eats Marxists,
The Chef just sneers at you.
The worker as a class is obsolete.
Meanwhile a good Union would do.

The girl in the snap is Sandy’s niece,
She’s as thick as clotted cream.
You don’t need degrees in Economics
To demolish her holiday Dream.
‘Love as a class is obsolete,
It’s not like we’re Just Seventeen.’

Pastrychef escapes with his girlfriend,
A chambermaid called Billy,
The day-release psychotic in the woodshed
Keeps trying to chop himself free.
The misfit as a class is obsolete.
I’m applying for a Ph. D.

Just a note to tell you I’m working
At the Rock Hotel Café,
Cliff the Boss has taken me off serving,
Says my adding takes his profits away.
Cliff as a class is obsolete.
It’s all Surplus Value anyway.

I Hate You, My Love

I still can't get used to it

Fell in love you

SONG ANGELS WHO CAME BEFORE by Nova J

[Vers 1]
People come, people go
Different places, different faces 
Sometimes they shrink, sometimes they grow
Love dissolves in empty spaces

[Bridge]
All these people served a purpose
Teachers and lovers and friends
I’ve lost plenty along the way
Good, and bad, things came to an end

[Vers 2]
So many times I said those words
And thought I felt them too
But now I know, without a doubt
No one compares to you

[Chorus]
I’ll always have a place in my heart
For the angels who came before
But they flew away, and here you stay 
Everyday, I love you more 

[instrumental]

[Chorus]
I’ll always have a place in my heart
For the angels who came before
But they flew away, and here you stay 
Everyday, I love you more 

[Outro]
Everyday, I love you more

Angels who came before

Why can't I?

If Wordsworth had had the decency to die at a respectable Romantic age, ie under 30 and before his 1807 poems were published, he would have been the undisputed Hendrix of the group. He was as Radical as Blake (he travelled to France to join in the French Revolution and described it as "Bliss was it in that dawn to be alive/ To be young was very heaven)" as passionate as Byron (he'd had a love affair and a daughter out of wedlock with a French girl while there) as visionary brilliant as Coleridge (they'd co-written the lyrical Ballads and its seismic Romantic manifesto together in 1798) as strange and gothic-beautiful as Keats (Wordsworth's definition of poetry as 'the spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings' is sometimes attributed to Keats) and as anti-establishment as Shelley (while Shelley was sent down from Oxford, Wordsworth simply walked out of Cambridge believing he could learn more from Nature and a walking tour of the continent.) The 1798 poems arranged here - part of 'The Lucy poems' and described as 'experimental' at the time - are perhaps the greatest achievement of this early 'disturbed'...  more
lyrics
Strange fits of passion have I known,
And I will dare to tell,
But in the lover's ear alone,
What once to me befel.

She dwelt among the untrodden ways
Beside the springs of Dove,
A Maid whom there were none to praise
And very few to love.

A violet by a mossy stone
Half-hidden from the Eye!
—Fair, as a star when only one
Is shining in the sky.

She lived unknown, and few could know
When Lucy ceased to be;
But she is in her Grave, and, oh,
The difference to me!
