Plastic Love and Cars

 
The Chinese say stop at one
others think about stop at two
but it's only a thought.
The fact is
eighty five million get born every year
on our tiny little planet
which is seventy percent water
that's the same as everyone
in an Egypt or a Germany
every year.
 
In Rome a very old man
from Bavaria
elected by puffs of smoke
who has never experienced sex for himself
or felt the hunger of a swollen belly
decrees to more than a billion souls
that they will burn in hell
for the sin of plastic love.
What a strange hat he wears.
 
And in the state of Maine
there are more cars than in the
whole of Africa
so I'm ashamed when I drive mine
but I can't seem to walk everywhere.
