Take It Back

To the self appointed patricians of government Take back your schemes Take back your doles What makes you deem That I was one of your proles I may have needs Wishes it’s true Keep your snake oil and beads I’ll get along without you You came along with all your clever machinations Supported and all paid for by enforced donations So take back your dosh We’ll make no fuss Just remember by gosh You got it all from us

You have expressed it more succinctly and memorably than I have. Thank you? John.
