The World of the One Percent

A fabulous lifestyle.

The World of the One Percent

 

By Elton Camp

 

The super rich is who these folks are

More wealthy than old Croesus by far

 

They reside in the most fabulous estate

Privacy protected by a guarded gate

 

A mansion with elevators & indoor pool

Where as kings and queens they rule

 

Sparkling clean and always kept that way

By staff:  butler, maids, cooks and the valet

 

“The master is quite indisposed,” they say

To any who may attempt to visit that day

 

Breakfast in bed they can anytime enjoy

Where they is nothing around to annoy

 

Even doctors willingly pay them a house call

As do stylists, masseurs, barbers�"one and all

 

Personal shoppers go out to buy their clothes

Unless a tailor comes�"it’s sure one of those

 

For it is only poor folks, down on their luck

Who have go and shop at Sears & Roebuck

 

Since only the little people pay income tax

In carrying their fair load they are found lax

 

Certainly, no self indulgences do they spare

For the uncouth masses they have little care

 

Unless James brings around the limousine

It’s in a mere $200,000 car they are seen

 

A world of incredible privilege is theirs

Where they relax without having any cares
