Reverse Robin Hoods

We give to the rich,
And take from the poor,
Reverse Robin Hoods
Are we - for sure,
'Compassionate Conservatives',
Political hoods - simple and pure,
We cut all benefits and Medicare,
But to our paying lobbyists,
We devote the greatest care,
We make the selection
And buy each election,
And practice seduction
Through public corruption,
We talk about 'values',
But are rather callous,
We simply don't care,
For life is not fair...
