The magnificent structure straddled the river
|
As I dictated my autobiography to my biographer
|
When I heard this tune
|
My title was "Renegade Genius"
|
But was interrupted much too soon
|
Was interrupted much too soon
|
I received this line
|
|
Twister
|
|
From me in Hampstead he received a letter
|
I headed it "Dear Twister"
|
Up from West Hampstead I visited Keswick
|
On permission from the guard
|
I begun like this but could not continue it
|
When I heard this tune
|
(It begun like this but could not continue it)
|
My ears were burned
|
By this tune
|
My head swooned
|
By this tune
|
|
Twister
|
|
The train from London on day of lunacy
|
Was packed with innocents
|
Children tended by walkman'd parents
|
Cretins auditioning
|
For non-existent parts on TV One
|
The train was a tube
|
Within the crushing beauty of the countryside
|
On the London-Keswick run
|
|
Twister
|
|
