No Longer Elastic Lyrics
No longer elastic
No longer a whistle call
The creases are deepening
Cracks within the flaws
No longer elegance
No longer La Belle of La Ball
Invisible to ingénus
Who like their flesh taut
Stuck in a power cut
He wipes his mouth and shrugs
This passenger crumbles
Tumbles low and fails
To memorise his memories
Not the man he fantasised:
Suave in Gaultier
Seasoned, travelled, epigrammatic
Parties in Mayfair
No chance ecstatic
No hope of tantric thrall
This squire is tepid
His lust a petty squall
No longer a whistle call
The creases are deepening
Cracks within the flaws
No longer La Belle of La Ball
Invisible to ingénus
Who like their flesh taut
He wipes his mouth and shrugs
This passenger crumbles
Tumbles low and fails
To memorise his memories
Suave in Gaultier
Seasoned, travelled, epigrammatic
Parties in Mayfair
No hope of tantric thrall
This squire is tepid
His lust a petty squall

From Patrick
"Don’t get old. It really is the only advice I can give as a Doctor. Alongside Patti Smith’s ‘Take care of your teeth’. I followed neither and now look at me. This is Pascal’s favourite song."
