Streets of hope

Stereotypes
Media hypes
The victim Liverpool

They painted a picture
Of a criminal culture
Uncouth and very, very cruel

In vibrant times
Poets created rhymes
And comedians carried the swing

There was MERSEYBEAT
The vibe out on the street
Yeah! Everybody wanted to sing

“You’ll Never Walk Alone
In my Liverpool home”
LFC wore the colours of success

They would beat teams up
While retaining the cup
Teams who visited left distressed

Checkout the TV Soap
Visit the Street of Hope
With two Cathedrals shrouded in fame

Newspapers from the gutter
Distorted the disaster
Liverpool was back in the frame

Signature: Words Have Power. Peace! Levi 2006

I know people love the accent
But then some pass judgement
They say Scousers are always on the rob

“Well there is a Scouser in town
So screw everything down.”
If you’re a Scouser, it’s hard getting a job.

Some visit the Albert docks
Close to the Liver Clocks
And sail the Ferry across the Mersey

Checking out the famous skyline
Which is recognised every time
With an image that is Oh! So chirpy

Well! She is known worldwide
This daughter of Merseyside
With a passion that burns like fire

So the reason I write
Is to shed forth some light
And Liverpool you never fail to INSPIRE
