Nottingham  

The martinet conservative
will claim they know about the state
whereto the rich the poor must give
to guarantee a happy fate.

The rich, they say, know money best,
and that is why they need your tax
for keeping merry men oppressed
and living in rude tents and shacks.

But Robin Hood had understood,
long before any Marxist did,
that tax was for the public good
and not just for some spoiled kid.

So go and check your dusty books
to get your money story straight
from Marx and Robin instead of crooks...
still repeating King John's hate.
