Fairy Tales Do Come True Harrison max Pfingsten

Grandmother needs feeding, The rat’s been at her store And little Red can’t bring her bread when she can find no more. Her house now quakes divided and the wolf is at the door The woodsman can’t protect her now, He works a distant shore

The people have gone bankrupt, The princes’ profits soar The stalwart ass, the middle class lies dead upon the floor. The grumbles of the rich drown out the wailing of the poor What peasants use for sustenance, lords use for keeping score

Feudalism isn’t dead, you’ll find fiefdoms galore Our nation sells her favors off like any common whore She and her friends each take a bite and leave us just the core And our complaints about the pips they’ll like as not ignore

They’ll chat, snug in their castles, deaf to the masses’ roar “The whining of the commoners is always such a bore.” “Did you say wine? I say, try mine! This vintage I adore!” “The plebs are getting restless. We had better start a war”
