Amazing StateBy Marlyn MarshallTo save a sloth like me! I once was poor, but now I've found My trade: Egality. 'Twas welfare taught me work to fear, The same my fears relieved; How precious did that State appear, Whose wealth have I received? Thro' many stranger's toils, their shares Mine own have now become; Their work hath paid my way so thus far, 'Twill pay beyond my tomb... As we've spent thousands o'er the years, State-son begets state-son; We've no more fat funds to raise, We're paupers everone.
