SELFISHNESS HAS COME TO TEA
Yabble Yabble, babble babble; selfishness has come to tea
Stayed for dinner, supper, nighttime, breakfast drinkies and a pee
On the floor, where else, you'll clean it
Consuming time's lost in a loo and you're the clean up square,.... yes YOU
Can't canvass doubt or we'll miss out
On life's hand out, a troughless snout in this Great Zoo.
Yabble Yabble, babble babble; Speakers voice above the din
Childish prank and temper tantrum, boys club drinkies for those who win
All white balls in the short selection, predilection of the few
Sample question of intention, mention conscience, sanction whip
Can't canvass doubt or we'll miss out
On life's handout; don't rock the ship ...... you say a toe to lick?
Yabble Yabble, babble babble, feel the thickness not the fit
Interest rate and health statistic, city rate and bomb ballistic
Never mind the job, you missed it, contribution .... Chairman Fund
Or was it buyout, sell out, cop out?
Never mind your health's the thing, and here's the latest .......
Royal story or was it Religion punned?
Diana's sin or Yorkies win or Bishop's trial or a Major's
file or run a mile or life in style or clause 4 or was it open the door? For .....
Selfishness has come to tea.
