THE BOOK OF BLOODY
BRITS
OTHERWISE KNOWN AS THE BOOK OF THE WHITE MAN’S BURDEN
The Brits find a new kind of misery
Chapter 59
And now the Brits have been above it all for years,
2kAnd they like it,
3Because it’s a brand-new kind of misery to be poor and inept and unemployed,
4lAnd when you’re the nation that invented misery in the first place,
5mIt’s pretty wonderful to find a new type of misery at this late date.
6And so, the chances are that the Brits will go on being above it all,
7nUntil the world comes to an end,
8Because it’s the only way to go.
9When you have a terrible climate,
10oA tired, mongrel race,
11pA ruined economy,
12A bloody, bloody past,
13And no more world to rule.
