The Chinese Cinderella sits in ashes up to here;
Her cities are polluted and her rivers fizz like beer.
Particulates are so widespread that breathing has become
A habit much like smoking – it's both dangerous and dumb.
The rain's not only acid but explodes upon contact;
Cockroaches are leaving and the flies have their bags packed.
She has no fairy godmother on whom she can rely
As the smog is thickening and shutting out the sky.
The government is Marxist but the country's laissez faire
As the people stuff their money in their dirty underwear.
Her carbon footprint is so large and carries such a stench
You couldn't even fit it in the Mariana Trench!
We'll have to send for Noah to bring back the forty days
Of rain before Red China can remove its filthy glaze.
