Wake up, wake up
Hear the bells a ringin'
Have a wank, scratch the loaf
Snooze
For now, anyway
Let the power of highly paid broadcasters compel you into daylight
Roll out
Get dressed
Get snazzy
Have a cup of tea and smoke a fag simultaneously
Check the hair
Ensure the bags under the eyes don't look bigger than those of the previous day/hour
Munch a bit of toast on the way to the tube whilst observing the woodwork
Hop on, find yourself a seat
watch the droplets gather on the window pane
Eye up stunner opposite, try and sneak a peak upskirt if the weather allows it
Jump off, jump on
Down the escalator
Up the stairs round the corner past the busker playing the same fucking song he played yesterday (It's Alright Ma in cockney drawl)
Emerge into odyssey of bright lights and loud noise with the backdrop of traffic surrounded by ill-fated slit eyed bargain hunters
Buy a box of matches for later
Throw change at the skaghead in a weathered sleeping bag
Chuck receipt at walking billboard
Refuse to give to charity as no spare change
Allow yourself some space to move
Open door, go to work (Insignificant..)
Finish, light up, toss it down
Take a deep breath
Turn on fashion accessory of a personal stereo with mugger-attracting earpieces in order to feel some sense of belonging in the big hard world
Grimace
Cough
Glance
Smile (Encourages acceptance)
Do it all in reverse
Change clothes so people will be impressed, for now
Snort some powder
Go out for a run, if only to make people think you value health (some people are fucked, y'know..)
Have a conversation with concerned parent or realtive
Watch more TV
Can't find the remote control
Stick with one station
Get back up, for now anyway
Feet hurt for a bit
Get down the pub
Lean at bar
Converse with casual acquaintances (but call them mates, it feels better)
Mention the football, usually helps
Drink cheap gassy shit
Eye 'em up
Piss the barman off, catch a glance, say the wrong thing
Get thrown on the street
Bleeding from the ears
Ouch

Not me
I lead a boring life
For now, anyway
