Dear diary
Went to the mall today
Me and Molly Flanders
Suspicion surrounded, swept over our every move
All as gone before
That’s gone before
All as gone
Gone that’s gone before
All as gone before
Gone that’s gone before
Masquerade, minuet
Pickpockets at the mall today
Johnny, Jenny, taking nickel’s, taking dimes
The punters never notice, even stand in line
Dear diary
Drew my dole today
Along with Francis of Assisi
Desperation descends, deepens every mood
All has gone before
That’s all gone before
Gone, all gone
All has gone
All has gone before
Gone that’s gone before
Spices, dyes, crimson from Aspen
Old market stalls at the mall today
Saffron, with Shandy make atmospheric chimes
Wandering folk don’t notice; while away the time
Dear diary
Bought some coal today
Me, Mrs Thatcher, and that scary Mr Scargill
Confrontation threatened every altercation
All that’s gone before
That’s all that’s gone before
All gone before
Gone, all gone before
All has gone before
Gone that’s gone before
