My Own Private Spin class
So my plan was to cycle into work on Thursday. But two things prevented this - another freezing night that left the [largely untreated roads and completely untreated cycle routes] slippier than I’d trust, and more critically, a complete inability to wake up to the alarm.
zzzzzzzzz.
So I treated myself (and the neighbours) to my own private spin class after work. The downside was the obvious lack of a view, but this was compensated for by being able to choose my own music. AC/DC, some Aerosmith, a little Muse, the opening track from Exile on Main Street, The Blockheads, The Wonderstuff, Joy Division, and this little ditty:
take a last decision and the cars to move it
past information
tunnel vision and the scars to prove it
everybody got a reservationfar beyond the black horizon
beyond the things you know
everybody got a destination
everybody got a place to gotake a walk downtown to where the victims go
take your shadow to the end to the very last windoweverybody got friends got shot upside and over down the line
everybody got assignations
I got minetake a one way ticket to the main attraction
cut a hole between the ground and sky
take a railway track to a chain reaction
cross my heart and take a ridefar beyond the black horizon
beyond the things you know
everybody got a destination
everybody got a place to go
Your starter for ten is to name that tune, without using Google (or any other search engine for that matter).
