Capitalist truth
Royal pomp dripping in gold,
Us the serfs find ourselves sold,
Political power and all their chummies,
Don’t care a fig for the nation’s mummies,
Elites all sunning on our labours,
Making themselves the newest saviours,
People all oppressed and downtrodden,
Calling this out will soon be forbidden.
