    What is this?
    An experiment.
    I’m not sure if it is even repeatable, I decided to take some fairly bland pop music lyrics – the sort that are the background to all our lives. They play constantly everywhere. You probably know them off by heart even though they might have been written in five minutes on the back of a cigarette packet.
    What if you take those lyrics, add a surreal dimension, a dream dimension, a stream of consciousness dimension and re-write them. I found it enjoyable.
    At first I just printed off lyrics and re-wrote. Then it all got mixed up with different verses and verses being mixed in. Reading it back, I can tell where number 1 came from but the rest? Their origin is lost in history.

The Banner of Christ in the Hands of the Socialists

  Sermons and Society (Ed Welsby) Title: The Banner of Christ in the Hands of the Socialists 27 th February 1887 Text: “In that day there shall be a root of Jesse, which shall stand for an ensign of the people: to it shall the Gentiles seek: and his rest shall be glorious. And it shall come to pass in that day, that the Lord shall set his hand again the second time to recover the remnant of his people which shall be left … “ Isa. 11:10-11   The ‘masses of the common people’ will deliver the church from the patronage and control of the rich; the church is on the side of ‘mammon and caste’, of feudal and commercial interests; the Socialists are the true exponents of the life and teaching of Christ. For fifty years the national bishops and the patron-made clergy – pastors who have been chosen for ‘the masses’ by Mammon and Caste – have been at their wits’ end how to persuade the crowds of the disinherited and oppressed to become, or own themselves to be, members ...
