The billions have nothing 
The billionaires the lot.
Sorry won’t be enough.
 
A bowl of pasta once a day,
While rocket ships just fly away.
Sorry won’t be enough.
 
Mustapha’s not my enemy,
Rudie-boy’s my friend.
Sorry won’t be enough.
 
So lock your doors and start to weep
Even Croesus had to sleep.
Sorry won’t be enough.
 
And run and hide and build your walls
The worm will turn and the mighty fall.
And sorry won’t be enough.
 
Not nearly, not nearly, sorry won’t be enough

Sorry won’t be enough... exactly!

Their thoughts and prayers worth even less..

Golden boys and golden girls must, as chimney sweepers turn to dust.

That’s Shakespeare or something.

See you! Nolan!
