Rich old men in their cricket whites.
With balding heads and fading sights,
Arrogantly putting the world to rights
Rich old men in their city suits
Argue and hard-bargain to win disputes.
against the deaf, the blind, and the mute.
Rich old men in their linen pants
Relying heavily on sycophants
convinced that we should all give thanks.
Rich old men in their Sunday best
Pray in the church like all the rest.
But believing they are divinely blessed
Rich old men in dinner jackets
Avoiding taxes on their huge wage packets.
What kind of world do these men inhabit?
