Eat The Rich

Eat The Rich

Peasants squabble
the homeless freeze
repeating the mantra
Spare change please!
magazines for bedding
The Big Issue and The Forbes Rich List...
Maybe we should eat the rich

Billionaires in their ivory towers
snatched milk
now turning sour
Pound Land Tories
in this desperate hour
five more years they stubbornly insist...
Maybe we should eat the rich

A 2p tax cut
up their sleave
while children starve
and pensioners freeze
so out of touch are the
blue blood pompous pricks...
Maybe we should eat the rich

If monkeys exhibited
hoarding behaviour
they'd be studied to understand
what makes them tick
the thought of watching others starve
makes me sick...
Maybe we should eat the rich

We can solve the energy crisis
in two ticks
use that blue fat
for candle wicks
no point in being
Champagne socialists...
I think we should eat the rich

(A work in progress. Needs some tweaking)

Hello Syd...

Eat the rich?

Save them from themselves and their final fate?

That's very thoughtful of you...

You may have to race for it...
