One day
that'll all belong to you
and what will you do?

Dad
he says
without hesitation
as he looks upon a century
of total devastation,
I'll fill in all the cracks and
rebuild the two up two down
council housing shacks,
if it didn't work the first time
it could do this time
or we'll all be doing hard time
in the state-run penitentiary.
