Two-thousand-eighteen Shades Of Bromford - Part 204

Today is Wednesday, the 4th of May 2022.


May, the fourth, be with you, said the badger.

What an event, said the elephant.

Elephant - a heavy plant-eating mammal with a prehensile trunk, long curved ivory tusks, and large ears, native to Africa and southern Asia. It is the largest living land animal.

"Bromford"

 

In Bromford freedom looks like

Too many choices

In Bromford I found a friend

To drown out the other voices

 

Voices on a cell phone

Voices from home

Voices of the hard sell

Voices down a stairwell

In Bromford

Just got a place in Bromford

 

In Bromford summers get hot

Well into the hundreds

You can't walk around the block

Without a change of clothing

 

Hot as a hair dryer in your face

Hot as a handbag and a can of mace

Bromford

I just got a place in Bromford

Bromford, Bromford

 

 

In Bromford you can forget

Forget how to sit still

Tell yourself you will stay in

But it's down to Alphaville

 

Bromford

Bromford, Bromford

Bromford, Bromford

Bromford

 

The Irish been coming here for years

Feel like they own the place

They got the airport, city hall

Asphalt, asphalt

They even got the police

 

Irish, Italians, Jews and Hispanics

Religious nuts, political fanatics in the stew

Happily not like me and you

That's where I lost you

 

Bromford

Bromford, Bromford

Bromford

Bromford, Bromford

Bromford

Bromford

 

 

In Bromford I lost it all

To you and your vices

Still I'm staying on to figure out

Midlife crisis

 

I hit an iceberg in my life

You know I'm still afloat

You lose your balance, lose your wife

In the queue for the lifeboat

 

You got to put the women and children first

But you've got an unquenchable thirst for Bromford

 

Bromford

Bromford

Bromford, Bromford

 

In the stillness of the evening

When the sun has had its day

I heard your voice whispering

Come away now

 

New, Bromford

New

Bromford

Oh

Bromford
