We are South Africans
We live in a real live circus
The Clowns run around acting serious
just one look at them walking proud
and the World laughs out loud
The Chimpanzees run amok
Their handlers ail of Culture shock
Chasing Trapeze artists round the ring
Men on stilts are finally suffering
The Lions have sold their claws and roars
For a few extra child subsidy encores
The Tigers crouch in fearful shame
The latest casualties in the Blame Game
And the crowd just stares on dazzled
As everything fails, likely embezzled...

As everything fails, likely embezzled...
A little too vivid
Apologies if I offend...
