Ching Ching Ching

Ching-Ching-Ching

rusty rattles -
smelly feet and fag ends
on the train to Blackpool

fun-food candyfloss
crab-sticks, cockles and shrimps

girls in bikinis
boys in boxers
a jellyfish and a donkey

screams from the log flume
belly turns on Pepsi Max

shop 'til you drop 'til
ching-ching-ching
jokes and clothes and ice cream

fishing off the pier
ring-pulls in the nooks and crannies

the tower and trams
like crystal gold
colourful, glittering pictures

falling asleep on the street
500 pounds a night
