Home of the ‘Camberwell Carrot’
‘The Beatles’ are ‘Top of The Pops’ with ‘I Feel Fine’
‘George Harrison’ and ‘Pattie Boyd’ have just arrived home
From from their holiday in Nassau in the Bahamas
Episode 5 of ‘Dr. Who and the Dalek Invasion of the Earth’ has aired
Watched by 11.4 million viewers
Accompanied by a winter-solstice full-moon, total-lunar-eclipse in Sagittarius
And ready or not, Cat Catalyst is coming!
Six weeks premature, breech birth, in the middle of a power cut!
The emergency arc lights are deployed
Princess Anne’s donated incubator is on standby
And Aquarius is gazumped by two star signs
Weighing in at just 3lbs 15oz
A utopian Sagittarian dreamer is born
Someone who had their own drum right from the very start
Someone who was never going to be able to ‘dumb-it-down’, in order to fit in
Was never going to march
Was always going to dance
Dance to the rhythm of ones own heart
One Heart, One Pulse, One Love
One, One…
One, One…
One, One…
