Oh Mr Activist
Listen to poem:
You talk of neo- liberalism
And progressive politics
They say Im left of centre
Like a sort of wonky shelf
Please oh Mr Activist , the Newspeak you can keep.
What we need more of, is a lot more Common sense
Terrorists aint freedom fighters
And what the hell is Daesh
Just a bunch of Idiots
Who’s imaginary friend as sent them ape
Please oh Mr Activist , the Newspeak you can keep.
What we need more of, is a lot more Common sense
As carbon really got a foot print
And diversity not a dance group on a show
And a honest conversation
Thats not telling someone they are as ugly as their mum
Please oh Mr Activist , the Newspeak you can keep
What we need more of, is a lot more Common sense
The voters will stop listening
And turn on their television sets
And start voting for a dancing dog
On X factor instead.
for any readers abroad diversity the name of a dance group on a uk talent show .
