The Silently Screaming Majority.

The silently screaming majority no government listens to,
Are fed up telling those 'experts' what they really should do.
Those desk-bound middle-class know-alls
Who know nothing of me or of you.
Our democracy gives them the power to tell us all to go screw.
Nice jobs, nice homes, nice schools, nice kids,
An alien world to me and you.
We are the poor silently screaming majority
No government ever will listen to.

Good one Adam, life often gets me screaming and not always too silently !!

How about,

The Experts Know.

The experts know me and you,
Or at least they say they do.
They say they know what I shoud eat,
I suppose they know I have big feet ?
They say that I should run a mile,
At 92 that makes me smile !
They say how much I do need them,
the middle-class overpaid expert men.

Yes Clare those supposed to be expert about us, may not fool us but they certainly fool themselves into believing that they really are expert about us !!

Well one more seems called for here ;

I always vote, I don't know why.

I always vote, I don't know why,
those I vote for just don't try.
I vote one way and then another
though I'd rather vote for my grandmother.
I know all their policies are all sweet lies,
but what parties sell this mug still buys.
One day I really must awake
and no more of their bullshit take !
