THE LAUGHING POLICEMAN

entry picture

 

We snatched this dirty Arab boy when he was throwing stones;

He looked so fucking funny making all his moans and groans

As we cracked him with our batons and we broke his fucking bones;

When some people called an ambulance we smashed their mobile phones.

 

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

 

The day’d been uneventful, mostly boring, kind of dull

Then we’d nabbed him from a crowd of youths and in the push and pull

We kicked him on the floor then I caught him on the full

With a pearler on his napper and I broke his fucking skull.

 

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

 

The blood ran out around him forming quite a crimson tide

Although the day was hot it took a while before it dried

So I sat and sipped my coffee till I was sure he’d died

Then I laughed so fucking much that I almost fucking cried.

 

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

Many thanks Tom. I was a bit unsure whether the irony of the deliberately flippant tone would work with the horror of the thing.

The video of this boy's death is quite sickening but needs to be seen if there is any hope it was not in vain.
