free rites

You’ve come a long way

From nits in your hair

Suit yourself

Tears of anger and shame

When you went hame

Mum would say

‘The world’s just that way’

It’s alright ma

I know the score

Keep your mouth shut

No ifs

No buts

Greetings for wains

Credit card to the max

That’s just greed

Not human need

Capital grow and net gain

Your child need not be scabby again

Invest in securities

Reel in some debtor

Maximise your land

Give human nature a hand

Promote yourself as a saving soul

Spike the ground of rent controls

Take care of thee and thine

Let such wisdom grow to fine wine

Renters that fail to pay

Prison for such scum – the only way

I did what it took

Twenty ex-council house on my books

We need to do something about these crooks

The well-healed have the least say

Alkies, druggies, drunks on the welfare teat

They live on easy street

I’ve worked for what I own

Nice car, holidays and big home

Look at me

If they’d just fucking work

Fuck the poor and liability crock

Keep it low key

Sickness insurance and all that guff

A mouthful for those who like a bit of rough

Open wide to some nob

Poor cunt can pay your rent

Not a preacher, politician or bourgeoisie

Expect even wankers to work for free

Sucking sex and fair game

Monetise the moral grain

Digits in bank books have no shame

I’ll put it simply so you understand

I’ve got a bit of land

I’m better than you

And there’s fuck all you can do

So when they ask about wee Jenny McGuire

Be very polite about what you write

And of whom you enquire

I’ve friends who know how to get things done

High above you scum

Toe the party line

Then you’ll be fine.
