To be a spearman
\nYou have to be psychotic
\nIn medieval towns
\nSo many are
\nThere are protestors
\nIn madrid
\nAnd elsewhere in the country
\nBut expectations now to lift the lid
\nOn roguery and streaks of piss
\nAre sadly
\nGiven the stage and remarkably they are
\nUnfriendly and disaffected
\nAnd probably rejected
\nBut up front in a crowd
\nThey are the star<\/p>\n
A prize bull gets the chance
\nTo die in agony
\nA fearless soul with power and strength
\nWho might
\nGiven an equal chance in life
\nGive a good account
\nBut how this ritual operates
\nHe is never in the light<\/p>\n
Craven hearted idiots
\nAre out there
\nEach With a small medieval mind
\nLong since dried up
\nThe Spearmen,s great long lances
\nFrom their horses
\nStabbing at the Bulls behind<\/p>\n
They wear the animal down
\nOf course from blood loss
\nThe torture and its torture
\nAll the way
\nThe shouting of the crowd
\nIts all a frenzy
\nAnd the bull alas it really has to pay<\/p>\n
Gallant bold and dogged
\nAll unflinching
\nThe feast days show the world
\nAt large how bad
\nThese so called youths of Spain are
\nBounders everyone
\nTheir livers shot away with sangria
\nWhen the day is done<\/p>\n
Whoever kills the animal
\nThrusts the great iron lance
\nInto the spine of the weary bull
\nWho really has no chance
\nIt then falls to this sadist
\nThis ugly monstrosity
\nTo cut off the animals testicles
\nAnd parade them instantly<\/p>\n
Bloody sinewy testicles hanging on his lance
\nAnd this champion of screwballs
\nIs applauded for his dance
\nBlood soaked and objectionable
\nIs seen by all eyes there
\nThis is SPAIN raising its flag of CULTURE
\nAnd despair<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
