24 Hour Party people was a movie about
The Manchester music scene
It is also the name of my black dog
I was one of these 24HPP and regret it now
As I have lost my ability to play topless poker
Which was a card game in which I remained undefeated
My dog obviously has no interest in this pastime
And is more concerned with eating shitting and fucking
I do think that he has his life and zen just about right
I scrape a living now doing this that and nothing
And wake up disgusted with myself each day
Although I have written a book about Egyptian Glass
Who was my other black dog
And was hit by a Manchester tram
On its first day of operation in 1992
