If I had the time and inclination
I will purposely give you your drama
and watch you get agitated and upset
as I make you see the fools that inhabits you
and rob your noses in the cream that always
rises to the top
but who wants to impress and assay nonentities
for it's that attention they crave being of lesser minds
best take their acceptance of the nobility that stirs them
For nobility holds the mirror that makes them see their faces
reminding them of their horrors, their losses and pained lives

they cry in anguish at all I can do
they see what breeding does and the gains possible
the haves beyond their sullen reaches and grounded lots
the rarity of the diamond that blindly glistens and gleans bright
against the pallow of grime and grimness they embrace perchance
Oh, how they know he has all it takes and how their being breaks
It should be us but why and what did we do wrong when we're born
So what else to do in minds unfed but if we can't then he can't also
That's the law of our jungle in our Westminster and we'll fight for it
So let them fight for all their lives they've fought for what they have

I am blessed a thousand times over
not born a desperate pirate on the stormy seas reeking
hacking, swinging looking for booties and ready to steal and loot
Always afraid and forever vigilant, looking always for the main chance
Eat my life and gorge on it, it won't fill you but it'll calm you down
I won't rob your sad noses in my cream that always rises to the top
what need do I have to prove anything to you when you know it all
bask in the solidarity of the good earth and wipe those angry tears
the land's yours and one day you shall inherit the earth and all on it
Take my blood and take your pound of flesh' sorry it's not fish and chips and mushy peas.........
