I thought this was a pretty clever piece. Reminds me of "Animal Farm". Like the rhyme scheme.

Just so you know, I kind of imagined a completely insane (funny more than dangerous) group of revolutionaries in the end becoming that which they despised so overtly. It's not a particularly serious take on this theme though.

With the old geetar it goes along quite quickly with quite a strong rhythm.

***
Eat The Rich

Eat the rich and raise the poor
To higher levels than before
Find something that's worth dying for
And give it your best shot

Overthrow the monarchy
Show them what a king should be
Have it done by half past three
Or you won't have a head

Don't call me sir, just bow or kneel
Is it my wrath you want to feel
I'll have you know this sword is real
Now, would you like a scone

Let's listen to the radio
It's better than a TV show
Is that the time? I'll have to go
It's pauper stew for tea
