The Slow Tissue Paper of Lies
written by: David R Mellor
Inflation is going down
Though you know it’s rising sky high
He gets to the dispatch box
And says 2+2 are 5
“No, it’s 6” scream the backbenchers
“It’s 7” “No it’s 9”
The thin burning tissue paper
Of lies
Corruption is a badge of honour
The truth is a lie
Just sit back and watch
The country burning from the inside
The thick corrosive wound festers
And democracy dies
