Where do you live and with whom?
Were you a bride or were you a groom?
Is it a semi, flat or detached?
Male or Female; how were you hatched?
Do you remain the same sex as born?
Or is that gender now forsworn?
What qualifications have you acquired?
Are you employed or are you retired?
Is there a guest residing this day?
Is there a student living away?
Are you Christian, Muslim or Sikh?
Or is that an answer you’d rather not leak
What best describes your ethnicity?
Are you White, Asian, African or Gipsy?
This census required by the State
Enabling planners to facilitate
The country’s needs and society’s mix
So we’ll know in future what we must fix
All must comply with this census demand
Or they’ll be poorer to the tune of a grand!
