“All around my hat I will wear my right to protest, All around my hat I will wear my fear with pride, And if anyone should ask you the reason why I’m wearing it”
“you tell ’em I’m from London, and that I’m here to stay”
“you tell ’em I’m a nutter, who should be locked away”
“You may applaud Weiwei, I’ll raise a glass to his health/
but will you stand for your people, will you fight for yourself?”
“You see, what I’m saying, basically, is… you can’t make an omelette without cracking a few eggs… and humanity is just a cracked egg… and the omelette stinks. It’s cracking up! The freedom bell is cracking up!!”
“You snooze you looze. You work, we improve. All for one, percent.”
All Around My Hat was a piece of performance, writing, and kinetic costume creation in 2015
