An Unlovely Bunch

Racing white Audi's with black leather seats
Overpriced apartments and penthouse suites
A sickly smell of success mixing with ill-gotten gains
Steroidal meat-heads mixing with talented brains

In the south of the city runs a shallow stream of consciousness
Eating and bleating with an air of pretentiousness

Using both barrels of their double-barrelled name
Patronising, condescending and lacking in shame


The clamour of materialism, I want, I get, i-Pad
Swaggering past the homeless, a sight so sad
Many are privileged sons and daughters of the rich
I'm sure he's a bastard and she's definitely a bitch


A low paid workers week's food spent on a throwaway lunch
They may have the money but they're an unlovely bunch
