There is a Rumour
There is a rumour,
that she has got a sense of humour.
Clinical laughter.
That is what she is after.
Available on prescription,
guaranteed to lead to addiction.
There is a profit,
and you may have a share of it.
A hospital ward,
that you could never afford.
Insurance for your wife,
premiums for the rest of your life.
There is a station,
it used to be my destination.
But now it's shut.
The buses have all been cut.
She casts a shadow of unemployment,
so nourishing for a warped enjoyment.
There is a Minister,
his post is somewhat sinister.
A master baiter,
confrontation sooner or later.
Rhetoric well rehearsed.
Under her spell, he is cursed.
There is a plot,
you hear about it quite a lot.
Do take it serious.
You could end up delirious.
It'll swell your growing brain tumour,
if you haven't got a sense of humour.
It's not just a rumour!
Capability Red 1981
