They are ratcheting up the old anti
the Badgers apparently they
now need a bod from the army
Afghanistan saw him okay
clearly he fights where the sands
and the rocks
and tribesman come out of the dark
ideal conditions for murdering Badgers
and obviously leaving his mark
The Dairy Farmers must be joyous
those killers of calves know the score
if they shout loud enough
this government listens
the rest of us well they ignore
the talk up the cull and the fracking
if it hurts the public then they
are behind it the public those people
who are they now anyway
we make the decisions they watch TV
the big news lie Syria and Fracking it be
far far too complex for the public and so
the Cull too oh dear how would they know
we have to step up to the plate and be seen
to murder these rodents for they are too mean
the cattle are needed and farmers are friends
and frankly that’s where all this crap ends
A top notch official will now head the team
his marksman no doubt given training the cream
of a country with wild life looked after would be
somewhere else clearly for here they all be
shot they cause millions of losses abroad
so now they must perish we cannot afford
to hear frantic farmers belly ache so
with their Land rovers running and their cheeks all aglow
