I have seen the Poverty that steals from poverty
I knew Poverty that cried poor tears
and even Poverty that sells her children to live
there's even some Poverty that rob Peter to pay Paul
as well as those Poverty that beg in public
and horrors, you have those Poverty that will **** and maim
then I travelled andΒ Β Mon Dieu
I came across Honorary Poverty
We are Honorary Poverties they exclaimed proudly
we chose to make bad choices, reject or misuse opportunities
see, we are the Civilised Poverties and we are ******
we don't work, we get Welfare checks for free
we squander that
we blame those that have and hate them for doing well
and make them pay for everything
we are classy Poverties
cause we come from a civilised Nation
and we are proud to be
Honorary Poverties
