Drink from the Toilet

I once had a beagle
Who did gross things
Like licking his bollocks
And rolling in stink

When no-one remembered
To top up his bowl yet
He'd head to the bathroom
And drink from the toilet

{ch}
Now, that water was murky
But he seemed to enjoy it
Man, he must have been thirsty
To drink from a toilet!

I thought of that dog
When I voted last week
I left that place feeling
I'd rolled in a stink

Democracy worked once
But press the fast forward
Now we just get a dose of
The "Buyer's Remorsis"

But I picked up that ballot
Took care not to spoil it
Put my "x" in the box
And I drank from that toilet

The water was murky
But I tried to enjoy it
Democracy's thirsty
So I drank from that toilet

{br}
They tell us that we're lucky
That changing would be tough
And if we don't suck it up
Everything will get backed up
..and the system will not flush

So...
Pick up that ballot
Take care not to spoil it
Put your "x" in the box
And drink from that toilet

The water is murky
But you'll learn to enjoy it
Democracy's thirsty
So drink from that toilet!

Yeah. the water is murky
(You really should boil it)
But Democracy's thirsty!
Come drink from the toilet!!

This is excellent satire Paul!!, and a lot more profound than is first apparent.

I no longer vote in UK elections because I will not vote for the corrupt status quo anymore. You've captured a lot of peoples feelings perfectly.

Put it to a punk tune I dare ya!

   Hi Paulski, you old dog. This is a quick visit because i'm pressed for time. But i couldn't let this pass without some kind of comment. I sat here for a while, but my words were constipated. The only one i could come up with was, SHIT! I wish i'd written that. Guess i need some prunes. Just great man, just great. Life is like toilet paper, you're either on a roll, or taking shit from some arsehole.

                         Stay loose

Really super Paulski. After your last couple of songs I somehow never expected to read one from you with the word "bollocks" in it. I was grinning all the way through reading this and yes, with an election next week here in Blighty, it's very timely! I'm sure this isgoing to be a riot when it hits "Finished Songs".
It's all too beautiful.

Hi guys and thanks for the feedback and support.
I know it's gross and graphic Vicki but, well, that's democracy these days, isn't it?  ;D

BTW - this came in second last in a lyrics contest on another forum - I guess they like cleaner water over there..  ;D

cheers
Paul

Indeed. And I do find it very clever. I can't deny it. It is difficult to enjoy, however, although I do--as much as I am able.

Very funny. I love this for a protest song. It comes across like a late night comedian cracking jokes about the sad state of things - a needed laugh at the end of every bad news day. If it were a more serious protest song, I'd have commented some of the rhymes sounded forced. But they only add to the humor of the song, as I'm sure is your intent. Nice work. How in the world did it come in second to last? People need a sense of humor.  :P
