NOTHING LEFT.



It's not called criminalisation, it's bloody senseless crime

and it's not because of spending cuts or the thin blue line.

It's not impetus youth or even down to race,

the money in your pocket or the mask put on your face.

No doubt the mob has anger and rules where it goes

and those without an anchor cannot seem to choose.

But selfish mindless violence and taking what's not yours

can never be the answer, will never help your cause.

There's good and bad in all of us, we know what's right and wrong

there's no excuse for genocide or burning something down.

You take that pair of trainers or grab a new flat screen

to watch the starving children so hungry they can't scream.

So enjoy your thuggish riots, your arson and your theft

make sure you get enough because you've nothing left.
