POETIC JUSTICE

POETIC JUSTICE

LEAR WROTE NONSENSE WHICH TURNED OUT THE BEST,
ENOUGH TO FLUMMOX AND PUT THE IRISH TO THE TEST,
WE DON'T KNOW WHAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT, DO WE?
OWL AND THE PUSSYCAT SHOULD BE DUMPED IN THE SEA.

BEAUTIFUL PEA GREEN BOAT SAILED OFF INTO THE SUNSET,
THEY GAVE US NOTHING BUT MYSTERY - ALL YOU COULD GET;
THERE'S SO MUCH NONSENSE GOING ON, DON'T NEED WRITERS,
IT'S YOU NOT I THAT TURNED OUT TO BE SILLY BLIGHTERS.

GLAD I'M ME, YOU'RE GLAD YOU'RE YOU - NOTHING YOU CAN DO, 
FLAILING ARMS, WHEN THAT BOAT IS PUSHED UNDER OCEAN BLUE;
WE'RE ACCUSED OF WHAT YOU'RE GUILTY OF - THAT'S HUBRIS,
ARROGANCE, PRIDE, PRETENDERS TO THE THRONE, ACADEMICS.

SO IF YOU WRITE, YOU SPEAK, INHERIT, YOU SHOULD BE MEEK,
GIVE IN, YIELD, OTHERWISE YOU'LL NEVER FIND WHAT YOU SEEK.
