England

I am an English man. I used to think. That I ruled the world. And could take my drink. When all would bow and salute. The English man a Sir or Duke. Now I found my place. In the human race. We are all the same and grace. Used to think that everything. From England came. Football, oranges and sugar cane. Used to think that I was best of all. Now I know, that is not so, at all. I am as good or bad as the other Lad. Some fools still make war. I say no more. Briton no longer Rules the Waves. Nor does the sword stay in our hands. It has been cast away. Peace to-day.
