THE MSM GETS ME DOWN

 

The MSM gets me down

With their depressing lament

So, I am avoiding the news

Like the plague at the moment

HOW THEY EXPLOIT OUR COMPASSION

 

How they exploit our compassion

With emotional blackmail

They paint us

Pitiful tableaux’s

Of fly ridden waifs

Babies at barren breasts

Or portrait images

Of sad saucer eyed children

Beaten and bruised

Or maybe its pictures

Of Maltreated beasts

That pluck at your heartstrings

The tactics used are quite crude

But anything goes

In the “No holds barred”

World of charity fundraising

As long as they can extract

Our 3 pounds a month

While the poor unfortunates,

The sad stars of the charity show

Are merely lost leaders

THE MSM GETS ME DOWN

 

The MSM gets me down

With their depressing lament

So, I am avoiding the news

Like the plague at the moment
