Flying Saucers With Turkey
there once was a mega star on the horizon
demoted to a comet in malevolent derision
an immaculate sky line put to a bloody sword
cross bones of anger no respect for the Lord
only the one of the flies a bestselling tale
humanity put on the altar with one giant nail
Bethlehem eclipsed by universal division
drones shedding death with pinpoint precision
baby Jesus shouts no battles in my holy name
the message drowned out by warfare and shame
as long as there is turkey and pious mince pie
the world is my oyster and flying pigs don’t lie
