TOMMY’S KARMA

TOMMY’S KARMA

.

Tommy reneged on his friends in the Reich

But my, what a price he has paid,

Fooled into thinking his saviours were foes,

Now he lies on the bed he has made.

.

His offspring are brainwashed,

They welcome as friends,

Invaders who covet his land,

Who ravish his daughters; pour scorn on his sons,

Is it time Tommy struck up the band?

.

Tommy was blinded by hubris and hate,

Common sense was replaced by their lies,

Now the same breed’s deceit instructs him to greet,

The foe with their dark hearts and eyes.

.

Taxed to the tomb, he whines at his doom,

As his daughters’ splice limb and his seed,

Will he still strut and preen when England’s not green?

And his sons go to war, and they bleed.

.
