Iberia Rejected

The Piece Iberia Rejected I like to go to Spain one day soon Portugal is so tiring and deceitful It is a fantasy land Where truth and lies blend Into a bewildering version of Arabic influence That Christianity decapitated. Spain is a big country with a great mind Portugal is so much smaller And their worldviews are that of What you see in an olive copse Besides I have family in Spain who reads And like my opinions I`m respected elder member of the clan They want me to come home And lead them now. Portuguese politeness is based on avoiding The truth at all cost No matter how long you leave in Portugal They will treat you with A smiling contempt. So it is time to leave this land of sheep herders and lawyers indelible belief in Dictatorship.
