They Claim the City
sleeping in comfort
luxury surroundings
pleasure arousing aroma of delicious foods
They claim the city
Arrogant and proud
Fill their thoughts
No equality is available
They claim the city
Privileged and honoured
Amidst people who need concern
But little do they care
Yet they claim the city
Posh cars
Of assorted colour
Lies the lavish
They claim the city
Squander alone
Smile with all
Swimming in the euphoria of pride
They claim the city
In their hands lies the zeal and veto
To manipulate the the city and its contents
They Walk in town with huge lump of ego on their shoulder
They claim the city
