Green snot, yellow snot,
smoke some pot, cry alot
godamn this fucking flu
its come for me & soon for you

lank hair, clammy skin
can't eat but i'll drink some gin
its all a conspiracy
the government is out to get me

pathetic little curled up ball
dirty tissues on the floor
one more pill will make me crack
how can they dispense this crap?

won't work, can't sleep
the devil now will give a speach

on all the evils of the world
& how i've been a naughty girl

is this a curse from god above?
or a man-made govt evil scourge
why o why target me
I swear i didn't hurt a flea

green snot, yellow snot,
aargh cough cough
pretty soon i'm gonna be lying in a trough
food for the pigs who protect me
when all i want is a cup of tea

flu girl, shmoo girl
what you gonna do girl
lying in a sea of misery
plotting revenge on all & sundry

bang bang you're dead
you suck & finally ??ur
bouncing on that big ol bed
how could i know he was dead
baudy screaming he did spasm
thrusting deep inside the chasm

omigod what the heck to do
with the dead bloke?
flush him down the loo?
no chop him up, burn him down
after all he was a bit of a clown

shit shit shit, panic a bit
gotta think now so play with my clit
What saddens me the most, is that I have given my life to this land, to these people. During Apartheid, at the age of 19, I defied the Nazi's and was incarcerated in a mental home because I believed that the country had gone mad. On another occasion I lead a protest against government tyranny. I have given everything to this place, my life has been risked for the good of all, more times than I care to count.

I could have been killed for my hard core anti-racist political stance. Yet nobody has bothered to lift a finger to help me. The very people that I saved, have actually turned against me. They prefer to construct me as the problem. This way they do not have to risk their own stupid lives. I hate cowardice more than anything. These idiots would still be marching around in square circles killing each other if it were not for me. They would still be harrassed by the Gestapo if it were not for me.

I know exactly where I was when it was announced that Mandela was to be freed. Do you? What were you doing then? The same as now?

Godless crap, every one of you. Black and white. Dry and useless. The people I saved continue even to attack me in my own home. I just don't know anymore... 2008/Jan/05
