They Talk a 'Village' Talk
It takes a village to dig a hole in the ground,
it takes an engineer to know where.
Point is extended families keep children safe
holes in the ground, like politicians,
end up dangerous and useless
and talk about ‘it takes’ and ‘villages’
is just a dumb way of saying,
that the air that we breath, and water we drink
can be purified by talking crap.
