Plague Songs - The Hard Faced Men Who Did Well Out Of The Pandemic / by Rich Hobbs

Here come the Hard Faced Men who 

    Did well out of the Pandemic!

     Buying shrouds to sell as facemasks

    Pitching Apps to measure clapping

    Sat on bodies doling dosh to

    Other Hard Faced men so busy    

    Gulling ministers with bullshit 

    Filling forms on who to furlough

    Shifting money further offshore

    Scraping spunk from off the bedsheets

    Of twelve million locked down wankers

    To sell as protein supplement

    To the clients in the care homes

     To increase the profit margins

    When they moved into the sector

    When things looked at their darkest

    Bottom fell out of the market

    With a mark up on the caskets

    Cornering the market

    With a smell of burning rubber

    Like the smell of crematoria

    And you’ll never buck the market

    No you’ll never buck the market

And here come the Hard Faced Men

    Who did well out of the Pandemic!

        Mark them well.
