Oh! This ailing nation
This septic isle
The rats have deserted
And gone to their retreats
Having voted for austerity
Cruelty and barbarity
Those shameful users
Those self serving vultures
Those corporate harlots
Who wear a mask of care
Yet their actions are nowhere
How have we descended to this?
A drip by drip effect
Ruled by the least amongst us
Those unfit for office
Those with conflicting interests
Those who are easily led
The whole rotten establishment
Has poisoned our humanity
We are on the brink of disaster
There needs a voice of reason
No longer should we lay down
It's time to resist
For too long we've been beaten
Rise up and claim what is yours
You are mighty they are weak
Their energy is placed in lies
Their efforts are easily bought
Their souls have left

Viva revolution!
Vive la résistance!
Always remember that your humanity isn't intertwined with everyone else's. If you hold within yourself the willpower and dedication, you will never be corrupted by the way this world turns. You might become a little numb though. Small price to pay if ya' ask me.
Very good and very true write.
