bird flu

ironic that you can cop the flu
from a bird wot’s never even flew

if ya piss in the pool them microbes ain’t gone
ya gotta use ya encephalon
chooks despise recycled chookflungpoo
just like cows hate cousins in their stew
ironic that you can cop the flu
from a bird wot’s never even flew

a standby variety standing who
stood and laid with conveyored poo
eating recycled cousins’ poo too
such a mystery cacklepoodle doo

thailand is a buddhist haven
tear gas! shouts a few
regime change!
cries a madman ravin’
mr science whatever will we do
the population won’t be fully placated
until our country’s insulated
whatever we do don’t let ‘em out
for fear that danger shall peck about
and exercise and run and scratch
whose subversive eggs won’t even match
and while we’re at it we’ve got the stage
stage one to control asiatic trade
and tell our tourists where to shop
and our scientists are the new wave cop

ironic that you can cop the flu
from a bird wot’s never even flew
