But despite getting little sleep last night
Interspersing attempts to sleep with bursts
Of reading John Lydon's life story, quite
Gripping, fortunately - combined the worst
Economic conditions with a thirst
For learning, then meningitis, hardship
Overcome, eventually. 'Mong the first
To dye hair green, wear drainpipes, much more hip
In Malcolm's and Vivienne's eyes than the drip
Of out-of-date hippies or rockers (might
See their descendants today, long-haired ghosts)
Whereas hipsters, their beards, they'll get my lip
To be quite honest, rather fly a kite
On West Kirby beach. Speech to them is terse
