[A] man died when he became trapped in a flooding drain near Hull.

And Dame Shirley Bassey’s helicopter had to land at a school after being caught in bad weather, following her performance at Glastonbury Festival.

Quality reporting.

Cos the beer’s for the friendship
The whisky’s for the winter freeze
The poppers for the come-up
The wallets for the entry fees
The ecstasy’s for the love, passion and depression
Viagra is for fucking, vodka for forgetting
The cocaine is for the self-esteem
The acid’s for the voyaging, the shrooms so we can dream
The draw’s for the sedation when dreams need settling
Ketamine’s to get you out of body, and out of skin
The amphetamine’s for unfettering the energies
Speed for the fatigue at the end of the week�
Cos we’re tired but can’t stop
We’re dying but alive
We’re wired but empty
And we’re too numb to fight
We’re tired but can’t stop
We’re dying but alive
We’re young but we can’t dance till we’re high�

From ‘Moths’ by Bad Science.
