T
My face is pale,my hair is white as snow
In my eyes is an unearthly glow
I ate some salt beef and some bread today
I tried to write a poem very gay
The Government attracted scorn and blows
The wind is in the willows with Jon Snow
Israel is getting on my mind
The deaf can’t see and all rest are blind
Come to Gaza, on the beach we play
Some children just got shot, ought we to pray?
On mountains where the prophets heard the Lord
The vultures now await the battle scarred.
The United Nations cannot speak the Word
Apartheid makes me wonder who is scared.
Jesus was a man so we are told
God sent him here, we killed him feeling bold
Would you like Guernica again?
Say the word, we’ll kill for pay.Amen
In the deserts of the human heart
Are there wells where water can be bought?
From whom come our so called Human Rights?
And by the way, what of the children’s plight?
Would you take a break on the West Bank?
We have some Bedouin Tents,and many tanks
Jerusalem is holy, what a shock!
You can eat ice cream right on the Rock
Women cannot wail on that great Wall
They have no height, they need to grow more tall
Golden is the dome and bright the sun
Catch an “Arab” out and have some fun
If we did not believe there was a God
He’d go away and leave us just his rod
I hate her wooden coat hangers all cracked
Give me wire and let me be abstract
I found some shoes but they have dropped apart
Think of how that hurt my Bakewell tarts
The Sacred Whore, the Holy Demon’s plight
The Holy Ghost is not inclined to fight
I have a table here on which I paint
I look so pale, will I be forced to faint?
In the bitter depths of winter night
Boil the kettle, lose your human rights
If you feel depressed then eat our bread
It will remove the skull from off your head
Are you feeling lonesome in the crowd?
Buy our lipstick then men will be cowed
Did you think ceramic hobs were best?
Come to us and have your IQ blessed
I want a pan for halogen hot plates
I’d ask the cat but it’s out on a date
Does Confession really help the damned?
God have mercy as the Devil can’
Trying lines
My face is pale,my hair is white as snow
In my eyes is an unearthly glow
