Screens 02:41
In 2012 the screens appeared Placed here for Olympic cheer Images faster, harder, stronger For mass consumption, mass consumption Now months on they flicker still Local news instead of thrill Their shallow words they fill the air As they beam down on empty square It's Boris' day today, they say It's Boris' day today When will they go? We cannot know Perhaps they'll go tomorrow Perhaps in 2048 they'll be used by fascist state or just left to rot Ancient statues part-forgot I feel the truth is more mundane They will slowly melt your brain Not through evil plot or plan but simply through inaction no-one's thought this through you see but still they'll sit and show TV all day whilst we consume in public space and never see our neighbour's face It's Boris' day today, they say It's Boris' day today
