Poppies

[billy]

i enjoyed this one. i do think you could have omitted a few words, an example:
Poppies on sides of buses
Poppies on the tv and working class lapels.

Poppies.

Poppies on the side of buses.
Poppies on scarves as well.
Poppies on the tv and on working class lapels.
When ex squaddies sleep on concrete.
Where does the money go?
Someone’s making a killing here?
Where does that money go?

They’re counting beans at the palace. this line doesn't work for me as the palace doesn't pay soldiers or ex soldiers.
The numbers don’t add up.
Poppies at the cenotaph.
Ex squaddies out of luck.
Poppies in the Arndale.
Poppies at the match.
Poppies next to medals.
There’s got to be a catch?
So who put the Great in Britain?
Who fought in the wars?
Who’s been making a killing again?
While ex squaddies sleep on floors!
God save the Queen! for me this line adds nothing
