Piggies

With all the plunder and mentioning piggish moves, I was thinking of this song and it's lyrics
Hard to get a good video that's not live and takes away from the words, but this version IMO is just great as a recording only, and
the lyrics unfortunately years later are relatable as ever




Have you see the little piggies
Crawling in the dirt?
And for all the little piggies
Life is getting worse
Always having dirt
To play around in
Have you see the bigger piggies
In their starched white shirts?
You will find the bigger piggies
Stirring up the dirt
Always have clean shirts
To play around in
In their sties with all their backing
They don't care what goes on around
In their eyes there's something lacking
What they need's a darn good whacking
Everywhere there's lots of piggies
Living piggy lives
You can see them out for dinner
With their piggy wives
Clutching forks and knives
To eat their bacon

This song was used by Charles Manson. He thought it was a message to him; he used it and other songs on that album to justify the murders.
