the tap dancing on ICERD



The tap dancing on ICERD
Afraid to go for the Rumba run
The movements suggestive and graceful
The country will jump up to progress

But it is the old 3R game
Living with it for decades
Though it is safe-guard in the Constitution
One race feels impotence to go ahead

It is good for the nation
But alas! The racist parties can’t take it
They are afraid their benefits will be gone
Though they keep harping of its rights!

There are no rights spelled out in the Constitution
How did it morph into a race right?
The King will safe-guard the benefits
It is time to kick out the addiction

The country needs to progress
In the world of borderless flow
She can’t be tied down to be an old maid
Crying out of her lost benefits
