THERE’S BEEN A LOT OF TALK LATELY

 

There’s been a lot of talk lately

In the media about blue on blue

But it shouldn’t be a surprise

Because that’s Smurf porn for you

PARLIAMENT ENACT THE LAWS

 

Parliament enacts the Laws

To legislate our behaviour

Police officers patrol the streets

To enforce the law

Then the court system shows us

The error of our ways

Well, that’s the theory anyway

Politicians call the tunes

And the police cherry pick

The laws that they enforce

And the crown prosecution service

Take only the cases they can win

Or that make them look good

And all three elements

Play to the media

IT’S YOUR OWN TIME YOU’RE WASTING

 

“It’s your own time you’re wasting”

But no one listens to the teacher

So, when option time came around

I went and signed up for media

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 NEWS OF THE WORLD

 

The News of the World

Oh, the irony is sweet

The news of the screws

That tawdry scandal sheet

 

Hoisted on its own petard

Because of its crime

They have become their papers

Biggest scandal of all time

WE’LL ALL BE KILLED

 

They tell us we are in the grip of another

Catastrophic climate crisis

That will drown the world

By melting the polar ices

Well if you are unconvinced

That the sword of doom is falling

Then you know the argument is weak

When data is replaced by name calling

Anyone not on message

Gordon Brown tells us in his piety

That we are no better

That the flat earth society

Well is it any wonder we are sceptics

When in the eighties we were told

By the doom Sayers

We would all die because of the hole

In the ozone layer

If we did not act we would kill

The polar bears and the Pandas

Well to be frank someone sold a lot of fridges

On the back of that propaganda

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
