Got a minicab into town
Santa Sprees at Bush House
for the recording of BBC radio session, February 21st 2001
And a taxi back to Muswell Hill
There was an Arsenal Champions League game playing with the sound down in the studio
Used the black emulsioned pine-xylophone from a junk shop in Minami Kashiwa
Percussive lemon from Ochanamizu
Kazoo from the 3rd floor music store in Jusco, Nodashi
Katherine played little shys of harmonica Fs and Cs
Graham played the acoustic guitar on Robert Bresson
Regretted not swearing on air when I had the chance
And not saying something controversial
About the Elgin Marbles
Or cockfighting
Did say lots of puerile things
Which was good
The p.a. was impressively coke-addled
On licence payers' money
I'm glad she was a public school moron too
It all helps
The green room wasn't green
The presenter was kind and seemed good at his job
We should play in more institutions
