 Harry Sweeden. My life in verse.

Governments


How can they claim to be… something they're not?
they claim to be clever…
then say “I forgot”!?
They claim to be virtuous… never telling a lie
then spin you a good tale
to watch others die!
They claim that they're interests… are what we require
then find us another tax…
to make us perspire .
So many Governments… pleading their case
but always the poor ones
get lost in the race.
There's one thing for certain all Governments the same
they'll f**k you then fight you
and say your to blame!
