I am The Divine David and I am
a visionary.
I know how humanity will celebrate
the end of the 20th Century… it will lose interest, become bored, stop
eating and we’ll all just fall around dead.
Looking back over the 20th Century
we think of…
Dame Edith Sitwell… Dead
Winston Churchill… Dead
George V… Dead
Hitler… Dead
Nazism, to a certain extent…
Dead
Everything is dying.
The Suez Canal has dried up
Modernism is over
Rural bus services… finished
The Bobby, beating on his beat…
he’s gone
Virginia Bottomley, she died
Free school meals… gone over
Free school milk… finished,
dried up… the bosom of human kindness just a dry old leather bag, what
used to be a beautiful, plump bosom full of beauty and bounty for everybody
dried up like an old spaniel’s ear.
Tonight we remember
'O' Levels, Kate Adie… all dead
It won’t bring them back but
it may make them smile.
The 20th Century is dying, oh
yes, the 20th Century will be remembered on the EVE of the DAWN of the
new millennium… every man, woman and child, marsupial und amphibian
will screeeeeaaaaammmmm
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!
Tuberculosis everywhere around, were all going to die… I’m looking forward to it, come and join me!
We think of...
paperback writers,
D H Lawrence… Dead
Benny Hill… Dead
Jane Austen… Dead
…All consumed by the 20th Century
One of the biggest phenomena’s of the 20th Century was the way that hundreds of thousands of British people died, they collected and stored goods, consumer durables, in their cupboards and hundreds of thousands of them opened the cupboards door and died under an avalanche of consumer durables, skewered to the floor of their kitchens by curling wands and toasters and sandwich makers… and what replaced these articles, these chattels, why NOTHING but bits of paper.
Television will end, oh yes, soon life will become but a hologram, oh yes, just a projection… there’ll be no more solid objects AT ALL!
Mine is the last voice you will

Mine is the last voice you will

EVER HEAR!!!
