The (Right) Breast That Shook (the World)

In a way off land there was revealed a Boob

Unclad before a hundred million strong

It stood almost unnoticed till the throng

Of media magnified it for the Tube,

Authorities across the land construed

The mammary unbearable and wrong

An unfit ending to a wholesome song

Projecting youth-ward unsuitable attitude.

The government will focus on complaints

Directing federal money to the task

Ensuring the nation’s security ‘gainst the Scare

And so preserve a nation full of saints,

Of which a thinking person has to ask:

What would have happened had she bared the pair?
