the gullible people










The bull dogs barking
In the circle of the ring

The medicine men
Shouting with loudspeakers

“People! People!
Come see what I got!”

The onlookers arrive
Curiosity get the better of them

Standing and crowding around
The bull dogs get the attention

“This is the pedigree
In the villages is the king's joker

They bark without reasons
Only want crowd for a reason

Barking at them
Snarling at their fear”

The medicine men
String it up for the gullible

“Buy this slogan
The troubles will be gone!”

The bull dogs barking
In the ring of of make believe

The medicine men sell
On the gullible people around
