Fire engine red
that's all I can see
Emergency
Mayday
I'm ready to kick the ballistics
like Pelé
Is you is,
or is you ain't my baby

"There remains an effectual struggle to be made"
Yet in the end,
it shall all go the way of the earth

Belgrade whistle
wake-up call
Smell the coffee
everything is past participle
and there's a thousand fragments
of shattered glass
