Scientific News

A Government scientist has given us the news,
That a handful have died from over-doing ecstasy.
How many have died from over-doing hard booze?
That is something he does not say:
The State he works for is in booze-pushers' pay.

Such men of science are up for rent,
The work they do is pretty bent.
If they tell the truth they get the sack.
A scientist who has different views,
Is quite unlikely to get in the news.
