Have We No Shame?

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 Bury the dead
Of the injured take care
Look to the sky
What goes on up there?
As bodies in sheets lie still in our streets
The t.v shows the Dow Jones
Is our shame not complete?

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 As smoke filled lungs
Breath the fresh air
As soot covered commuters
Are filled with despair
Horror and terror
Are spoke off all day
Just show us the markets
It’ll all be okay !

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 A city in turmoil
Is bought to a stop
Thank God for fireman,
Medics and cops
Who can we turn to
What will they say?
Just show us The Footsie
Make it all go away?

Notes

I think the t.v company should be bought to task for this heartlessness, but …… they won’t will they? The parasite hoteliers who were charging Londoner’s who were stranded double rates for rooms as well, should be named and shamed!

We’ve lost the plot big time!

Human life is becoming very cheap and is second to the financial market results in the big scheme of things?

Big shout goes out to the boys and girls from the building site opposite UCH hospital who were on the spot right away giving blood donations for the dieing and the injured. At least there are still some real caring human beings about out there to restore our faith in humanity!

peace.
