After many weeks of sleeping Occupant has sprouted a new ballad called "Riznickireneconsuelanorvenavirginiajosephjaredirene" in the spirit of "Joey" and "Sara" from the seminal album Desire, by Bob Dylan.

Please sing along...
Greetings my comrade
Lady in red
Communist nymph
Hammering my head
Supporting the workers
While you stay at home
Smokin a doobie in a fibreglass dome
Riz, Riz, Riz, Riz
How come you don't
like the Clash?
Riz, Riz, Riz, Riz
A diplomat's son is so easy to bash
Tell us the news
Nicky ma boy
Spellin it out
In black and in white
Keeping the laundry room
free from all lint
Enjoying your new found
Dictatorship stint
Nick Nick
Neighbour of mine
Never a dick
Nick Nick
Proffering newsletter
Making it stick
Lady of Laughter
Lady of spite
Tossing your garbage
Over the rail
Admonishing children
For games they do play
Enforcing the values
of co-op each day
Irene star queen
"It's not a coop it's a co-op," I mean
Irene star queen
You're an invincible
blah blah blah smoking machine
He was on his last legs
A quivering mess
A pile of fur
in the lap of your dress
His days were outnumbered
Under a tree
You brought him to his maker
so mercifully
Consuela star sailor
Chow Mein did well
to give you his trust
Consuela star maker
determining when it's all over for us
Gasping for air
In between shouts
All shades of purple
rushing about
Accusing your neighbours
of things you do too
Perpetually angry
with nothing to do
Norvena Norvena
Hydrogen cloud in a calico dress
Norvena Norvena
You bring out the worst
While remaining the best
High pitched complaints
as the meeting dragged on
Bringing up stuff
from dusk until dawn
Whinin and wailin
Like some little boid
So easy to say no to
So hard to avoid
Virginia Virginia
Making up trouble for something to do
Virginia Virginia
Ending our troubles
with a squish of your shoe
Lady of memories
Lady of points
Making them madly and putting me to shame
Rhyming off lists of how people are bad
and not doing your bidding
Makin you mad
Irene Star Queen
And another thing and another thing and...
Irene Star Queen
Feeding the rats with a smoke in your hand
Securing the grounds
Hiding the boards
of makeshift playforts up near my house
Hiding the tools
Pulling the nails
Making it so
we can't have a fort
Joseph Jospeh
wearing leather driving gloves so curiously
Joseph Joseph
why'd you take the children's death threats so seriously?
Speaking of smoking
in the gazebo today
Skunk cabbage blowin
into my face
Tear away pants neighbourhood watch
Another mailbox hose
hi-jinx to botch
Jared Jared
Happy go lucky
Every man's son
Jared Jared
Out of this whole bunch
the happiest one
Lady reporter
Lady of truth
Can't hide nothin from her
What would be the use
She knows if you're Jewish
she knows if you're gay
But what makes her think
she can blow you away
Irene Star Queen
Rappin on doors
Rappin so mean
Irene Star Queen
Who will come fix
your metric machine?
