THE WHOLE WORLD SMELLS A RAT

Contributed by Steeleyes on Monday, 9th February 2004 @ 04:57:24 AM in AEST
Topic: political



The politician pleads:
“Come on, find another subject!”
The whole world smells a rat
All your claims we reject


O/

“Look, there’s inflation,
the economy, jobs—all of that”
You KNOW our answer:
“We smell a rat!”

“Come on, you know I wouldn’t lie
I’m an Honest Joe, not a sleazy cat”
We see through this act
He’s a rat!

“There must be some mistake.
I didn’t know the facts!”
You were judge, jury and executioner
And NOW you ask for facts???
YOU’RE A RAT!


O/


ALL politicians stink it’s true
The whole WORLD can smell rat
But the warmongering kind...?

Smell even WORSE than that

Well, my dear friend, this is something else we have in common. Smoking out all the rats from our government. One at at time, starting with the top, will be fine with me. I think maybe we need to start a revolution against all political rats. This is a fantastic statement. Powerful, well-stated. My congratulations to you! Rita
