Political Bureaucratic Poem by Mai Murphy Venn

Why did we join the E.E.C.?
Back in that year of 1973
Was it really good for us?
Or was it all just great big fuss

We gave them rights over our land
They told us how we could expand
They told us to pay for free water
We were like lames lead to the slaughter

Did we do our country right?
Should we have put up more of a fight?
But sure back then we had no voice
Now we can demand a better choice

We are the people of Ireland
We are ready to make a stand
Our so-called leader would sell us out
Are we all set to march and shout?

We are. We are ready for the call
And we shall rally one and all.
For we want our country to be free
From all that silly political bureaucratic
