Voidoids: A void dance.
First, (per)use the (post-archetypy one hopes) text:
"Teddy's rolling now most every night
Skatin' backwards at the speed of light
He's changed - in a thousand little ways
He's changed - yes indeed
You know he's movin' on metal, yes he's
Hanging tight with the Jack of Speed
Sheena's party - there's a case in point
That right-wing hooey sure stunk up the joint
He's gone - he walks through the old routines
But he's gone - guaranteed
He may be sittin' in the kitchen, but he's
Steppin' out with the Jack of Speed
You maybe got lucky for a few good years
But there's no way back from there to here
He's a one way rider
On the shriek express
And his new best friend is at the throttle more or less
He can't hear you honey - that's alright
Pack some things and head up into the light
Don't stop - he'll be callin' out your name
But don't stop when you hear him plead
You better move now little darlin' or you'll be
Trading fours with the Jack of Speed..."

Sheena's party:
"The "Jack of Speed" is an addict under the influence of speed, meth,
crystal, etc. Very popular these days, and the downfall of many a good
man and woman. Unlike many other drugs which are anti-social right from
the beginning, speed seems to fool people into thinking they are
productive, initially. Then, one day they're at a party, and spewing
political hogwash."
An almost sufi sophistication...
They are very good indeed (in word/inward) when it comes to cliché avoidance (-dance around the well-worn, but don't actually step in it!).
