Let’s Have A Party

 

Pause the war

Let’s have a party,

Forget the starving

And the lame,

Let our heroes

Come Together,

Let them meet

And play some games.

Keep the torture

Wheels a rolling,

They’re in rooms

No one will hear,

Let our leaders

Feed on fine food,

At a table

With their names.

Ban the protests

We are sportsmen,

No political

Posing here,

They’ve spent

Billions on the

Structures,

Let’s shake hands

And be sincere.

Keep the bombs

Keep on building,

We’ve got battles

Yet to begin.

In the meantime

Applaud the athletes,

Their time spent

Training is so dear.

Tell the bleeding

Global warmers,

It’s not so

It’s atmosphere.
