It was the afternoon of the morning after the night before
I had refused to apologise
But you listened to my side of the story for once
You were filling your lungs with tobacco from Texas
And I was being so greedy with the remains of the Polish beer
You were probably saying the most beautiful things
But none of it was climbing up into my ears
Cos you have wronged me one too many times
There were many occasions when I stood by your side
But not tonight
There were intelligent civilizations existing inside of our heads
The social construction of a layered reality
Remember everything that Radu taught me
Well you are a woodpecker on the side of my head
So fuck off and find a new nest
