How can I be
an honourable soul
as greedy men prance by
clad in the finest,
a house I could buy?

Lying can be difficult
but there you are
it’s done no harm supposedly,
but who am I to care,
life has been so difficult.
Why am I to blame society, politicians and greed?
but there you are
it’s done no harm supposedly,
but who am I to care,
life has been so difficult.
Why am I to blame society, politicians and greed?
What else is there
but to lie as best one can
to secure a hopeful stand
to feed my starving family.
Who on Earth can blame me?
I did as always what was fair
and in return my life blood was squeezed
by greed and filthy liars – politicians they are –
as corporations feed them,
but to us gave naught and care but less.
So if I am to tell a lie
then that I have from them
is the obvious to show.
So why are you upset God?
For in them too I suspect
are these greedy buggers just like us
who in honesty had nothing
and yet played their cards right
but gained little except initially
a conscience free – sleep at night.
