Someone Had To Wake Up These People

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 Someone has to wake up with these people,
In the same house, or more appallingly,
On the same bed. Imagine the nausea
Of sharing a duvet with a dip-stick
On some range of repulsiveness between
Jabba the Hutt and a sewer rodent,
Every day of their lives a fresh foray
Into failure, their notion of celebrity
Is an indistinct bawl in the backdrop
Of a football stadium, their moron minds
Incapable of understanding why
No camera will focus on their features.
