my throat is dry
from hearing the croak of
Nima’s tree frog
talk Mister President
our tears become rain

one that’s dodgy or great
there lies an evil dictator,
zipping his fly and
kissing your vote away
with soft salty lips.
As she adjusts his tie,
she whispers your fate
to the smiling front man.

First we’ll sit, take wine and cake
then lets hear his latest jape.

Now, speak up man what’s amiss?
Well my Lord, the prince is very troubled
He went to town and found it far from pleasant.

The people have not what they need
serving only three courses and cold mead.
so grim in fact, that he says they are revolting.


So Percy’s been to town alone?
Brave fellow still, but not the first,
we too have seen the grime and filth.

Only now, it’s just talked through
and after long debate, agreements reached.
So back you go and tell him this

All is well throughout the land
the ruling class has spoken:
peasants are revolting.
