Where the air was neon thick
And warm and the fan was broke
Or not switched on
Sudocu puzzlers were drawn
To their cigarettes
Under football on the box
Vogt's Bier-Express
Had KissKindl drip mats
And plastic crysanths
Parked in yellow cups
5 beers on tap
The Beatles
And Stalin behind the bar
And a Russian policeman's cap.
