   I'm off to listen to the Thompson twins.

   Drive along the sea   
   Far from the city's twitch and smoke   
   To a misty beach   
   That's where my life became a joke   
      
   On the dunes   
   On the dunes   
   (Became a joke on the dunes)   
   Where rents are high   
   And seabirds cry   
   On the dunes   
      
   As you spoke you must have known   
   It was a kind of homicide   
   I stood and watched my happiness   
   Drift outwards with the tide   
      
   On the dunes   
   On the dunes   
   (Homicide on the dunes)   
   It wasn't fair   
   It's brutal there   
   On the dunes   
      
   Pretty boats   
   Sweeping along the shore   
   In the faltering light   
   Pretty women   
   With their lovers by their side   
   It's like an awful dream   
   I have most every night   
      
   In the summer all the swells   
   Join in the search for sun and sand   
   For me it's just a joyless place   
   Where this loneliness began   
      
   On the dunes   
   On the dunes   
   (Loneliness on the dunes)   
   I'm pretty tough   
   But the wind is rough   
   On the dunes

   Just one more song of this calibre.   
   I'm sure he had a few like this tucked up his sleeve.   
      
   I'm off to die,
