Crossing Zebra Road


originally intended to be an inverted reflection of "Why Don't We Do it in The Road?", but rather became something along the lines of "Revolution part 1"




Some miles ahead of Abbey Road

a year or two before The Beatles' end

we discovered a more specially chocking

zebra crossing which twisted our minds

         with unbelievably BLACK stripes

         on a very WHITE, unwinding street

         well, yes monkey, you saw right!

         but we heard a bird complain from left:

                      "Why do people like to cross this zebra

                            more than any other fucking thing?!

             Why can't they treat every street as equals?!"

then while our old brown shoes

stepped on that crazy creature

so curiously but lazy

for the 4.444:th time

           like Beatles rolled over Beethoven

           our reason began to (r)evolve:

                       "How boring if no road were unique...!

                         and if every street deserved the same

                        amount of attention - then

                        how could we dare to adore...?

and why would one bother to love anymore

one's favourite zebra some more than some horse?!"
