FUTURE LEGEND from Diamond Dogs 
And in the death as the last few corpses lay rotting on the slimy thoroughfare
The shutters lifted in inches in Temperance Building high on Poacher's Hill
And red mutant eyes gaze down on Hunger City
No more Cbig wheels
Fleas the size of rats sucked on Frats the size of cats
And ten thousand peoploids F#split Ginto small tribes
Coveting the G#highest of the sterile skyAmscrapers
Like packs of dogs asGsaulting the glass fronts of Loveme CAvenue
Ripping and rewrapping Dmink and shiny silver Gfox, now legwarmers
Family badge of sapphire and cracked Cemerald any day now the year of the Diamond Dogs...
