Dear Mr. Weller,
I have been asked to pass on the following message to you by an inmate of the secure unit at Langdon Hospital, and I hope to send a covering letter when I have established the details.
Not being a musical man I am not clear on the significance of the message, but apparently it might mean something to you and has some connection with an internet site called 'Lemmings Rock' ,and some event at a place called the Redwing in Lympstone (Or is that the Redwing Inn, Lymptone?)

21ST CENTURY SCHIZOID BASKET CASE

Do you have the time, to come and share some wine.
And I will try to tell you all about it
I don’t have a clue
Bout writing a review
And I’m a paranoid neurotic sad twit.
Sometimes I think I’ve said too much ,
My mind is thinking double Dutch
You’re getting in a huff,
I know I’ve said enough,
For I’m a schizoid.
21st cent’ry man
**********(1)
I went to a shrink
Who said ‘you need a drink’,
‘it’s lack of alcohol that’s getting you down’
I went to the pub
To get some beer and grub,
Is that band Crush uk or is it BobkatZ*
*(All hands to the pump The Redwing Inn, Lympstone on Fri 5th May 06)
Sometimes I think I’ve said too much ,
My mind is thinking double Dutch
So don't in a huff,
I know I’ve said enough,
For I’m a schizoid.
21st cent’ry fan
Basket case or Holiday
I really can’t say
*********
repeat last riff from ********* (1)
The barmaids name was Kay
We went on holiday’
But things went badly wrong
No doubt about it.
I found she was a whore
With seven blokes or more
And so I text ‘I’d love (to) crush u k’
Sometimes I date my mate Katrine
Sometimes…. I like to call her Katz
And things are looking up
She has a new hair cut
And so I text
‘I like - your new bob-KatZ’
*********
Grasping to control
So I’d better go home [clean …..version …….–Ed]
Who…… the…… f**** …… is Ed?

Sometimes I must give you the creeps
Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me
it all keeps adding up
My arse is cracking up
Its just my hemorrhoids that give me hell.
Repeat opening riff
So have you got the time to come and drink some wine
For everything I see is just weird ersatz
I am still confused
I feel I’m being used
Is that band Crush uk or is it BobkatZ.
Sometimes I give myself the creeps,
sometimes my mind plays tricks on me
So don't get in a huff,
I know I’ve said enough,
For I’m a schizoid.

Al Coda (Who the f*** is Al Coda).............................
The reprise introduction as last chord fades (Guitar 1+vox)
Thanks for taking time to listen to me whine
But this is really what I meant to say
Although I got it wrong
I really like your song
And you can play it better than Green Day
Sometimes I do go on a bit
Sometimes I.think that I'm a.........
Guitar 2, bass and drums interrupt with King Crimson riff in same key and forte vocals
