Noel Coward on Council Flats
The Council Flats of England were built with the intent
of giving lower classes somewhere cheap to rent.
Though without a Moat and Banquet Hall
God only knows how they live at all
in such a tiny space.
But it keeps them in their place.
But soon the wicked Tax Man will force the rich to sell
all our family silver and our Stately Homes as well.
And after that we'll all reside
in whatever the Council can provide.
So, though their stairwells smell of fart
and are covered in highly offensive Art,
we'll stand by the Council Flats of England.
