The Warp

O rich girls







(‘Soon it will be spring again, and debs will once more be in season ...’ The Observer)


O golden girls, county girls

how I have loved you

O golden girls, county girls,

pampered and plumped

by your supertax Daddies

plastered with bangles

along your downy forearms,

Cashmiri spangles,

Egyptian sarongs


with so many ‘ring me’s’,

so many (white) telephones,

and Friday, come morning,

it’s back home to Wiltshire

with a bootful of sketchbooks,

sunhats, bouquets,

paintboxes, print dresses,

and copperplate invites ...

with so many nights out

in so many night clubs

so many parties,

dancing till the dawn,

so much champers

and so many bath salts,

so many ice-buckets

for so many love buckets

and so many conversations

(desperately important)

so much black coffee

drunk until the dawn

so many visits to

so many spring collections

so many compliments

so many private diaries

so many names in

so many (pink) address books,

so many afternoons

lying in the sun

so many compliments

such a lot of fun

such a lot of flying in

so many aeroplanes

such a lot of flirting

not down country lanes.


O golden girls, county girls

how have I loved you

o golden girls, county girls

in your zany sportscars

pampered and plumped

by your supertax Daddies

plastered with bangles

along your downy forearms

Casmiri spangles

Egyptian sarongs ...


I truly sought to

distrust and flee the

golden world that

has produced you

yet you keep popping up

in my songs.
