A paradise green.
Heard of a Paradise green
Where the penury is beautiful?

Giant-regarded too
In name and but tales.
It's what they say,
And can say to the moon.

Here is the home of Herbert
Descendant of the slave Macaulay.
Land of my father where matters nought
but the bag of the kings.

Kins of emptiness to the filling of it.
Like joblessness to the banish of Theft
and avarice to punish it.
Like blood law and greedy gun
to the defence of her sins.

Trustworthy lies, righteous and ripe
In no other paradise will you find.
Will you please grind on, sweat and smile Brethren? Unfine here is fine.

Loose your mask. Blooden your palm.
Justice is a good friend of bribe.
Honesty died in this paradise green.
Oh it died and in peace.
