Way too many adverts with people reading out sh!t poems they’ve written.

That’s all - carry on.

Unless the poem being recited in any situation is The German Guns by Private Baldrick, I'm not interested.

Nobody heard him, the dead man,
But still he lay moaning:
I was much further out than you thought
And not waving but drowning.

Poor chap, he always loved larking
And now he’s dead
It must have been too cold for him his heart gave way,
They said.

Oh, no no no, it was too cold always
(Still the dead one lay moaning)
I was much too far out all my life
And not waving but drowning.

For the life we chose
In the evening we rose
Just long enough to be lovers again
And for nothing more, the world was too sore to live in.
Sad old ships, a morning eclipse
I spent my whole life guessing
Then I turned from the sun, and saw everyone searching.

Sad old ships, a morning eclipse
I spent my whole life guessing
Then I turned from the sun, and saw everyone searching.


It begins with a blessing, it ends with a curse
Making life easy by making it worse
"My mask is my master", the trumpeter weeps
But his voice is so weak, as he speaks from his sleep
Saying: "Why, why, why... Why are we sleeping?"

People are watching, people who stare
Waiting for something that's already there
"Tomorrow I'll find it", the trumpeter screams
And remembers he's hungry, and drowns in his dreams
Saying: "Why, why, why... Why are we sleeping?"

My head is a nightclub with glasses and wine
The customers dancing or just making time
While Daevid is cursing, the customers scream
Now everyone's shouting, "Get out of my dream!"

‘Help, help,’ said a man. ‘I’m drowning.’
‘Hang on,’ said a man from the shore.
‘Help, help,’ said the man. ‘I’m not clowning.’
‘Yes, I know, I heard you before.
Be patient dear man who is drowning,
You see, I’ve got a disease.
I’m waiting for a Doctor J. Browning.
So do be patient please.’
‘How long,’ said the man who was drowning. ‘Will it take for the Doc to arrive?’
‘Not very long,’ said the man with the disease. ‘Till then try staying alive.’
‘Very well,’ said the man who was drowning. ‘I’ll try and stay afloat.
By reciting the poems of Browning
And other things he wrote.’
‘Help, help,’ said the man with the disease, ‘I suddenly feel quite ill.’
‘Keep calm,’ said the man who was drowning, ‘Breathe deeply and lie quite still.’
‘Oh dear,’ said the man with the awful disease. ‘I think I'm going to die.’
‘Farewell,’ said the man who was drowning
Said the man with the disease, ‘goodbye.’
So the man who was drowning, drownded
And the man with the disease passed away.
But apart from that,
And a fire in my flat,
It’s been a very nice day.

Didn't British Rail use that for an advert a few decades ago? I kind of remember the fkn rhythm, clickety fk, clickety fk, clickety fk.

Must admit I'm drawing a fkn blank on the fkn words but.

It's the latest fad isn't it? Like teams ads during the first wave. Really grating.

It's the latest fad isn't it

To make oneself known and become a hit

Like those team ads during the first wave

We're supposed to be lifted and feel inspired

Instead it's all really grating

cos the reality is, we'd prefer to be free in the world

than shut indoors trying to recall

what's it like to be out there,

meeting and mating.

I detest those nationwide adverts. I have to mute them.

I know that was then, but it could be again..
