Modern Living


So it’s I don’t know

So it’s I don’t care

Modern living

Under where

 

The Middle Class

Have gone to sheep

In branded linen

Secrets sleep

 

Woken weekday

Shutters peep

Don® Care-less® Kotten®

Fashion creep

 

Long endless fares

Jammed knee deep

“It’s only business”

Morals sweep

 

Scarf instant lunches

Calorie heap

A quick refresher

Just one seep

 

“It’s only business”

Morals sweep

Then drag back home

Promise to keep

In branded linen

Secrets steep

So I don’t know

It’s I don’t care

 

Modern Living

Under

Wear
