    Simple premise. Post a song that you're feeling today, or about a specific situation. Or generally are feeling about society or the state of politics currently in the nation.

    Pulling the ice axe from my leg
    I staggered on
    Spindrift stinging my remaining eye

    I finally managed to reach the station
    Only to find that the bus replacement service had broken down

    After wondering to myself whether it should actually be called a train replacement service
    I walked out onto the concourse and noticed the giant screen seemed to have been tampered with
    Probably by a junior employee
    Disgruntled commuters were being regaled with some dismal TVM
    Involving a tug-of-love-custody-battle
    Stockard Channing held sway

    Down in the High Street somebody careered out of Boots without due care or attention
    I suggested they learn some pedestrian etiquette i.e. sidle out of the store gingerly
    Embrace the margin

    Fat kids with sausage rolls
    Poor sods conducting polls

    There's a man with a mullet going mad with a mallet in Millets

    I try to put everything into perspective
    Set it against the scale of human suffering
    And I thought of the Mugabe government
    And the children of the Calcutta railways
    This works for a while
    But then I encounter Primark FM
    Overhead a rainbow appears
    In black and white

    Shite Day
    I guess this must be National Shite Day
    This surely must be National Shite Day
    Don't tell me, it's National Shite Day

    Float… float on
    Float… float on
    Barry… Herpes

    I got a letter from Stringy Bob
    Still on suicide watch
    Screws not happy
    Spotted a Marsh Fritillary during association
    Was roundly ignored
    What news you
    I felt sorry for him
    He'd only been locked up for public nuisance offences
    One of which saw him beachcombing the Dee Estuary
    Found a dead wading bird
    Took it home, parcelled it up, and sent it off to the rubber-faced irritant Phil Cool
    With a note inside which read: "Is this your Sanderling?"

    Another time saw him answering an advert in the music press
    "Keyboard player required: Doors, Floyd, etc
    Must be committed, no time wasters"
    You can guess the rest

    I always imagined he would simply wander off some day into the hills
    To be found months later
    His carcass stripped by homeless dogs
    His exposed skull a perch for the quartering crow

    I folded away the letter and put it in my inside pocket
    All of a sudden I felt brushed by the wings of something dark
    May the Lord have mercy on Stringy Bob

    Shite Day
    I do believe it's National Shite Day
    It all points to National Shite Day
    Someone's declared it National Shite Day

    Shite Day
    My birthday! On National Shite Day
    No bogroll, it's National Shite Day
    Cue drumroll, it's National Shite Day
