Oh be a demon
outside all class!
If you’re a woman
or even an ass
still be a demon
beyond the mass.
Somewhere inside you
lives your own little fiend,
and woe betide you
if he feels demeaned,
better do him justice,
keep his path well cleaned.
When you’ve been being
too human, too long,
and your demon starts lashing out
going it strong,
don’t get too frightened
it’s you who’ve been wrong.
You’re not altogether
such a human bird,
you’re as mixed as the weather,
not just a good turd,
so shut up pie-jaw blether,
let your demon be heard.
Don’t look for a saviour,
you’ve had some, you know!
Drop your sloppy behaviour
and start in to show
your demon rump twinkling
with a hie! hop below!
If, poor little bleeder,
you still feel you must follow
some wonderful leader
now the old ones ring hollow,
then follow your demon
and hark to his holloa!
