Irony Man


If I were a rich man,
Six of us would have a chocolate to share,
A single room to sit and chat in,
And a single TV remote to fight over.

If I were a rich man,
We'd have two bikes or four seats in a rickety bus,
One cricket bat, one ball and three broken stumps,
But six mothers that we could count on when hungry.

Alas, I am not,
For I have all the above, but the five and six,
My house has a TV, the TV has a house, I don't,
For I am but a poor man, who everyone believes is rich.
