“We must defer, the vote we’d lose.”

“We can’t win.”

So dies democracy. All a bruise.

 

You’ll be poorer

the baby boomer

will be cooler

now we’re nearer

being the sewer

of the purer.

 

We have a deal

it is real.

You will squeal

we keep the eel.

Looking at the newsreel

it seems a misdeal.

This is surreal.
