kelvin flats at night
when i go to bed at night
and look out of my window
at the giant block
and the streets are deserted
kelvin becomes
a stage with no actors
a giant with no clothes
a ghost town
when the walkway is lit
but there's no-one walking along it
when the bin bags rustle in
the cool night wind
and taxis trundle
along infirmary road
looking for late night revellers
kelvin remains
an empty echo
a giant with no clothes
a stage with no actors
when the lift shaft stands silent
but for the banging of a door
that's got stuck
when you can hear a dog ten flats away
or next door's tv at 3am
cos they can't sleep
or he's back from a nightshift
kelvin is like
a stage with no actors
a giant with no clothes
