Broken hearts and broken windows
dripping walls without a roof
riotous exultant others
take and take, denying proof.
Shoes are worn but not with pride
as they strip out their dignity
once closed doors are levered wide
for just one night all hell set free.
street lights are outshone by fire
streaming out but left to burn
for fire fighters are attacked
the devil takes another turn
Nobody recalls this madness
in their life's short memories
Nero looks on at this empire
seemingly brought to it's knees.
But the fiddling was done
some time ago within a house
of common people, smiling faces
singularly known as louse
and these same people have the answers
to broken society?
Don't make me laugh you hypocrites
and don't forget to claim your fees.
