When nobody cares
Or chooses to think
Beyond tomorrow's dinner
Or their next drink
They tick their boxes
Sit on the same fences
Without any thought
For the consequences
It's my kids innit?
That's all that matters
And you couldn't care less
If the world's in tatters
When nobody cares
Or chooses to think
About what they're doing
As we approach the brink
Lie through your teeth
Keep on promising more
And they'll keep on voting
Like they did before
When your vocab's aimed
At eight-year-old's level
Nobody ever questions
Your bare-faced drivvle
When nobody cares
Or chooses to think
They'll still support you
Though your policies stink
We get the government
We most likely deserve
If your life staying the same
Might yet be preserved
But they'll tear you apart
With hardly a thought
If unthinking loyalty
Has already been bought
When nobody cares
Or chooses to think
Everybody else gets
Flushed down the sink
MAWH, July 2019
