ALL PIGS ARE EQUAL

Why can’t they see,
The powers that be,
That we are sick
Of taking stick.

We really need a
Stronger leader
Who can see
The irony
Of trying to eat and pay the rent
On less than most of them have spent
On fat cigars and good cognac.
These MPs all condemn the black
Economy as being a sin,
When every day their snouts are in
The public trough.
                          
Jobs on the side
Mean they can have a cushy ride,
But somehow it’s not quite the same
As when they’re handing out the blame
To someone who is in the shit
For earning while on benefit.

Why can’t they see,
The powers that be,
That we are sick of taking stick.
