Buggery Blues
Do you want to hear the story of a pleasant little lad
Who was taken to the toilet and buggered by his Dad
The Dad was big and hairy; the boy was only small
But he had to grow up fast, and hide his past behind a wall
So he could forget it all
He kept the secret hidden for about a million years
Never understood his anger, or his terrors, or his tears
Until the day his body slowed from run, to walk, to crawl
He blacked out in the bedroom, and woke up in the hall
And I could remember it all
The first time that he fucked me, I was only one year old
I didn't know a lot, but I did know hot from cold
And now I knew without being told -
No more a baby.
He likes to stick his penis in little babies' bums
Babies' mouths are smoothThey don't have teeth, just tender gums
And he feels a sense of power when he comes
In a baby
And you can hear the thoughts he's thinkingAs his cock starts shrinking
'Well I didn't do anything bad.
You know I'd never beat himOr put him down, or cheat him
And anyway, I'm his Dad
So I'm entitled to do the things I do
It's nothing to do with you
You fucking arsehole, if you're trying to imply
In any way that I am not a pillar of the community
Everybody's free to make their own choice how they live
Sometimes I need to give a more physical form to my love
And so I shove my cock into his bum
Oh! Come on! There's worse things happen at sea
Believe me!'
A't least the boy is free
He's not stuck behind some enemy's fence
Relying on Providence to keep him going
Never knowing if today will be his last
He's not haunted by a past
That makes his life seem like a very bad dream
A bloody nightmare!
What does anybody careHow I get through my day
You'd think that they would pay more attention
To the men who fought their wars
God's whores, and damned police!
When will it cease?
Do you begrudge me the little bit of peace
I get from this release?
Well, go to buggery!'
And now I'm forty-seven, and I recognise what's real
My mind is clear at last, and I've begun to heal
But sometimes in the dead of night I feel
As helpless, and scared, and lonely as a baby
