Member Poem

Who killed cock robin
I killed cock robin
with my 4 X 4
as I dug up the dunes
said the off road enthusiast
and threw his cigarette butt
into the dust

Who killed cock robin
I killed cock robin
said the marketeer
with bottled water
and liquid soap

Who killed cock robin
I killed cock robin
said the good wife and mother
with my plastic bags
filled with holiday shopping
I killed cock robin

who killed cock robin
I killed cock robin
said the tour operator
with my  alcohol fuelled
raucous sunset cruises
I killed cock robin
but I don’t remember a thing
 
who killed cock robin
I killed cock robin
said the jolly corporate farmer
with my introduced species
and clearing of land
I killed cock robin
with my factory farm

who killed cock robin
I killed cock robin
said the weekly columnist  
me and my colleagues
at the Japanese restaurant
where we watched him sliced up
in front of our eyes

who killed cock robin
I killed cock robin
I sold him in exchange
for the Olympic games
and a big screen TV
said ol King Cole
and he reached for his nuts and his beer

who killed cock robin
I said the cosmeticst
with my toxicity tests
I killed cock robin

who killed cock robin
I killed cock robin
said the copy writer
but if I didn't do it
someone else surely would have 

Who killed cock robin
I killed cock robin
writing this song
on these plastic keys
 
who killed cock robin
we all killed cock robin
and now we must all
pay the price
