Start at A
See what you know
What have you been through?
Make a list
Now scrap the page
Forget what you wrote
Writing ain't s'posed to be easy you know
You've read the news
And none of that worked
To help you make art you don't hate
But someone whispered
" The big screen is cool"
So let's kill the blues at the talkies today
We'll hit the cinema
As violence abounds
And joker the clown spoils the day
On my phone there's a photograph
Or minute-long clip
I opt against work
To watch this
So here you sit
In darkness locked in
Your art may be richer
But your brain turned to shit
I tried the news
And it made me feel sick
The joker took armistice
And blew it to bits
I once heard it said
That a man and his heart
Could change if he listened
More than spoke
But now i'm afraid
That my listening day
Will end when the credits do roll
Don't be alarmed
If the chaos on screen
Begins to resemble the world as it be
You' ve come this far
And now you should see
The uncanny parallels
'Tween the talkies and me
