October 21st

This is the life I can't afford
Sitting discussing houses abroad
Butlers and Nannies, private education
Original artwork bought by a rich relation
Grand parties in grander houses
Shiny shoes and tweedy trousers
Peoples who's gardens are bigger parks
Who do their big shop in Marks and Sparks
Drive around in four by fours
Whose tiny dogs have tiny paws
Who are a continual glowing colour
Teeth are bright but lives are duller
They don't seem to be bothered at all
By the current climate or economic fall
I'm hoping they don't hold a grudge
And perhaps I'm too quick to judge
People make the world go round
And it's good to find some middle ground
Folks with money are just people
With bigger houses with a steeple
