You see the agony but feel no pain,
You see the tears but sorrow isn't real.
Blood flows but goes where make-up artists stain;
Imagine, yes - but never ever feel.
Ignore dead bodies if they are the foe
(Just as the politicians do in war),
Let's cheer the hero going with the flow,
(While, for effect, they kill a dozen more).
All that matters is the story-line,
Reality is always put on hold;
When shooting's over eve'rybody's fine
And someone somewhere scoops a pot of gold.
It's only entertainment (and it's free
With breaks so you can have a cup of tea!)
