piggsee or pigs ear

Sun, 21 August [2005]

the tides ar e high

close but no coconut
a split second late
you got away with it
but we lie in wait

there are black birds flying in the lobby
theres a black sea of sticky saudi oil
and the governers/commaner in chief are/is
planning their/his escape

you made a pigs ear
you made a mistake
paid off security
and got through the gate
--- away with it

note: 'Executive class are
arranging their escape
in a private jet'(2006 radiohead calendar)
