Rage! Rage against the faults of Man about,

His shitty attitude to fellow man,

How he colours his words to his coloured

Friend, how he seldom makes amends,

Yet says his Amens every day. Rage! Rage!

Rage! Rage but do something good.

Rage! Rage because he always puts his wants

Before his needs. Rage because it’s never you.

Rage! Rage because he is a Me! Me! Me!

Rage! Rage when injustice is seen being done.

Fight! Fight for freedom’s sake, his, mine, and yours.

Fight! Fight the human flaw, his jealousy and rage,

Fight the robber, thief, fight the wife stealer,

Fight for the victim’s freedom, fight for the Goodness’ sake.

Rage! Rage to purge your weaker, selfish stage,

Rage against inequities, rage for healing ways,

Rage for children’s sake, rage for their safety,

Rage against the bombers, shooters and the like.

Rage! Rage for equality, rage against inequity,

Rage against the money mongers, rapists,

Shooters, bully boys, gangsters, cheaters,

Conners, snake oil sellers, grafters, hackers.

Rage against needless poverty, rage on,

Rage for living wage, justice for all,

Rage until you settle scores with climate change,

Rage, my friend, for respect, for dignity for all.

And when you’ve raged yourself right out,

And when you’ve conquered all your foes,

May God rest your soul in peace and retirement.

Pass the Crown of Rage to fight the future woes.
