In 1982, Janine
Jock McLeish’s fantasy
Has him conjuring up scenes
Some people would call obscene
It’s well past midnight
As he lies
In a semi-conscious state
And dreams of Superb, Big Momma
And Jane Russell in The Outlaw
In the morning he awakes
His arms, his legs, his body aches
Something Leather will make your day
The genius of Alasdair Gray
The genius of Alasdair Gray
Lanark was his greatest book
But there’s so much more, take a look
The Fall of Kelvin Walker
McGrotty and Ludmilla
My favourite is Poor Things
And don’t forget his great paintings
And every other thing he did
The genius of Alasdair Gray
The genius of Alasdair Gray
