Flagshaggers

Flagshaggers

Patriotic pissed and proud
Angry loud flag waving crowd
Knuckle-dragging bric-a-bracs
Brainwashed fodder for right wing hacks
Flagshaggers
Watching GB News all day
Flagshaggers
Voting for Reform UK
Flagshaggers
Floundering NHS
Struggling councils funded ever less
Anderson ex Tory MP
Made a meal for 30p
Propagated racist spite
Joined a party further right
Once he was a northern red
Thatcher changed his mind he said
Never mind the mess she made
Now it’s like he’s on crusade
Flagshaggers
Perpetuating lies
Flagshaggers
Everything’s privatised
Flagshaggers
The public purse is spent
Pensioners working can’t afford the rent
Statues war memorials
Deemed worth more than hospitals
Peaceful people demonstrate
March for ceasefires hope not hate
Now the opposite’s implied
By the press they’re vilified
Football hooligans insist
Britain needs a populist
Flagshaggers
Ultra-Tory tools
Flagshaggers
From underfunded schools
Flagshaggers
Don’t know George’s story
Nor the words of Land Hope and Glory
Flagshaggers
Deify Enoch Powell

Voted into power by knuckle draggers

Sparrow

Sparrow
At A&E in hospital
I saw a sparrow skeletal
Very young and very wrecked
Having his blood pressure checked
Nearby in another bay
His mate a scrawny pigeon lay
Waiting on a wooden frame
Asking after wotsisname
Old bill blue were standing by
Guarding lest the sparrow fly
The sparrow put his hoody on
The pigeon sent a text anon
A porter with a trolley called
To wheel the sparrow to the ward
The pigeon rose and all withdrew
Escorted by the old bill blue
