BY DESIGN Sept. 5/84 Karl Rigelhof

Rubber plants
Bleeding plastic
Skin tight pants
Feeding electric (shock)

You say you can't
Tell me where it's at
We'll see who's laughing last
When you're lying flat on your back

Condition red
The colour of your heartbeat
Petition fed
With images dancing in and out of time
In and out of mind
Either get in or out of line

Lovers chants
Pleading spastic
Ritual dance
Needing drastic (plots)

Measures of the slant
Angle off intangible
Still they rave and rant
Like cossacks leading the attack

Condition alert
There may be trouble brewing
It doesn't hurt
It's just a feeling moving in and out of time
In and out of mind
Maybe it's in and out of mine
By design
I feel fine
