Poetic-Verses

'' Tramps And Thieves ''

I am upper class I am better than you,
I look upon you as scum,
We're the elite, the privileged few,
As for you lot well you are all dumb.

I detest the way you choose to live,
Tramps and thieves you are every one,
All your illegal exploits we will never forgive,
Your sob stories give us such fun.

Honesty and respect are what one craves,
Things you know nothing about,
Your heinous habits are what depraves,
Our laws of common decency you flout.

You steal and lie your way through life,
Calling you scum is doing you a favour,
None of you know the meaning of strife,
As chaos is what you lot savour.

Why we tolerate you is what we must ask,
Then again someone must serve our needs,
As degenerates you will never take us to task,
Our arrogance is what this attitude feeds.

Tax avoidance in itself is not illegal,
Loopholes were made to go through,
That's why we're rich we're almost regal,
We only do what one should do.

Robbing you blind is not a crime,
That's why you taxpayers are there,
To the top of the class you help us to climb,
Integrity among us is rare.

Truth is what you steal is a pittance,
Compared to the billions we evade,
Though from us there'll be no admittance,
That the fact is we're illegally paid.  

All of our wealth has had to be earned,
Though there's no need for you to know how,
Let's just say fiddling has to be learned,
What we do the politicians allow?

They are in our pockets when all's said and done,
How we're rich is not really a riddle,
Unlike you we don't rob with a gun,
We just know the best ways to fiddle.

So as we look down on you with total contempt,
None of us for our crimes ever grieves,
From conscience and contrition we are exempt,
Truth is we're the real,
