‘to eat and smoke and bet and swill’s
no substitute for moral will
in proportion, economics is just a part of politics

‘it’s values and attitudes
not economic platitudes —
ethics and thrift and vision and work
not food and medicine and free milk —
that make a nation strong

’crime and violence and wife and child+beating
are not products of not eating;
the foundation of the nation’s
family values and civilisation;
poverty is wrong
‘the defences of the nation
its tone, its true inspiration;
respect for other people’s goods
things for which our fathers stood:
values that last long

‘money and food and promises
have generatеd grievances
expectation’s malcontеnts —
people who won’t pay the rent
will always belong …

‘to hopes that can’t be satisfied
in groups who only can deride
those people who respect the law
who’ve raised themselves up from the poor
they’d never stay among.’

because they have to fight to change
a world that’s bought and sold — and strange —
real lives are never understood
— explained — in terms of attitudes
or patriotic songs

‘and those who try to pull the trick
are vile and nasty, cruel and thick
the f+cking b+st+rds get on my wick;
their viciousness just makes me sick
‘the sh+tty f+ckers can’t explain
their lives as real — as stress and strain
they want to wallow in champagne
they’re lazy, stupid, weak and vain.’
