Saint Theresa knows what is good for us now –
she sings ‘Hallelujahs’ and takes a low bow
as she cleans the feet of the blessed rich
whilst loosening her grip on their privatised bits
She’s touched The Trump – held the hand of God
and now she is saying Come and buy the lot!
And on Election Day – perhaps in 2022
when they’ve won again – against the too few
you might turn round and look back on this time
and regret the miracles you left behind –
the medicine – the doctors – the freedom to move –
the care for the elderly – state schools improved –
the future for kids – ours without privilege –
the rights we had – to stand up ‘n still rage
When the state that blessed us is sold for our good,
you’ll have no one to trust, except Theresa’s rich gods
