The Socialist Throng
Written by Steve Wallis, 11/3/2007
The Earth is frying!
Africans are dying!
The state is prying!
I don’t blame you for crying!
What is to be done?
Boycott Murdoch’s Sun?
Be serious or have fun?
Create a world for everyone!
CHORUS:
Oh, it’s good to have a smile on your face!
Be happy, we’re going to save the human race!
By all means worry that it’ll all go wrong,
But enjoy being part of the socialist throng!
It’s only human to have emotions!
It’s only kind to have devotions!
It’s only natural to use potions!
Don’t worry about having foolish notions!
Be weak or be strong?
Be a loner or belong?
Be right or be wrong?
Write a poem or a song?
CHORUS
Is God up in the sky?
Will we go up there when we die?
Do we see eye-to-eye?
When we dream, do we fly?
Show you’re kind and smile!
Have wit as well as guile!
Maybe get yourself an MI5 file!
And love good people all the while!
CHORUS
Why cry?
Why sigh?
Why lie?
Don’t die!
Try to keep a smile upon your face!
Try to put glum people in their place!
Beat a king or queen with an ace!
Enjoy saving the human race!
I have recorded this song as a musical poem, now available as a Windows Media Audio (WMA) file or in MP3 format.
