 ramblings and things

If 

the population of China

All together shouted Bang

What would be the effect

On the folk of Hindustan

 

Would there appear

Underneath their feet

Large expanding cracks 

In every Chinese street

 

Would the voices combine

in a huge and rising cloud

Of concentrated pure

Unadulterated loud.

 

In continental Europe 

Would it pour with rain

Irrigating those parts 

Of once arid Spain

 

 

Would clouds surge to heaven
Would birds cease to sing
Would it rain in Barnsley
Would it affect everything 

Or
Would the inhabitants of Neasden
Just shrug their shoulders and say
I suppose it’s a slightly different
Way to start off the working day

And
Would the population of Britain
As I suppose I really suspect
Say just a bunch of foreigners
What more can you expect 

So

Would the Earth tremble
Would it affect the weather

If the population of China
All shouted Bang together
