The Book of Love Is a Load of Shite

A piss-poor script for desperate fools,

Scribbled by liars, peddled in schools,

A rotting carcass dressed in gold,

Same tired scams they’ve always sold.

It stinks of need, it reeks of rot,

A tangle of games they soon forgot,

Promises cracked like a dried-up well,

A holy hymn dragged straight to hell.

They preach, they moan, they bloody sing,

But love’s a rusted, broken thing,

The book of love? Set it alight—

It’s piss and paper, shreds of shite.
