Portable Collins
Who would be a poor man, a beggarman, a thief
If he had a rich man in his hand.
And who would steal the candy from a laughing baby's mouth
If he could take it from the money man
Cross-eyed Mary goes jumping in again
She signs no contract, but she always plays the game
Dines in Hampstead village on expense accounted gruel
And the jack-knife barber drops her off at school
Laughing in the playground; gets no kicks from little boys
Would rather make it with a letching grey
Or maybe her attention is drawn by Aqualung
Who watches through the railings as they play
Cross-eyed Mary finds it hard to get along
She's a poor man's rich girl and she'll do it for a song
She's a rich man stealer, but her favour's good and strong
She's the Robin Hood of Highgate; helps the poor man get along

Glass Shadow seems to have decided on becoming, ulimately, a five-piece band. We will Preston (Formerly of Limelight and Ransom), Derek (Limelight), myself (Ransom, Mexican Salad Bar, What's Left of Dr. Simmons), James (What's Left of Dr. Simmons) and an unnamed vocalist. We found this fellow at random in the band hall who claimed to play guitar. Me and Christian (Still possibly a member) asked him what his biggest influence was, and he replied "Symphony X". HOLY FUCKING SHIT! That is pure progressive metal! But we couldn't find him after that, so Preston thinks we made him up. If that guy can sing, he shall be our fifth member.
Kasey, we are still friends.
