Might As Well Been Born A Jersey Cow Poem by Mark Heathcote

Society has changed, no one cares
We are here to be milked don't you know
Might as well have been born a Jersey cow
Branded a lowlife by millionaires
Clinging own, unanswered prayers.

Society has changed, no one cares
If you, trip, if you fall they'll help
Throw you down another flight of stairs
Look, don't be a cry-baby, don't yelp!
Through the hard times, things are lean,
Life feels, often cruel & mean.

Society has changed, no one cares
If you lose your job, your house
There'll be tariffs, lies, and smears
There'll be bills coming out of your ears
Large add-ons having-add-ons for years

Society has changed, no one cares
You are here to be milked don't you know
Might as well have been born a Jersey cow
Branded a lowlife by millionaires
Clinging own, unanswered prayers.
