the puppet leader

 


The puppet leader

He can't swing on his own

He has to take instructions

The man who pulls the strings


We are told many times

Teach a man how to fish

It will help him to feed

His family and his own


Yet we have seen

Dishing out welfare

Increasing its allotment

It makes no sense


It is only for political gain

The man can't feed his family

He will be lost in his hunger

Because he doesn't know how to fish


The puppet leader

He has no sense of vision

He can't imagine how to tackle the economy

He knows only how to spend


Is this the way to go?

The race he talks about

They will suffer in pain

Because black oil will not rain


The hinterland race

Better wake up to fight

The injustice befalls

The wealth of the nation
