Piggies
Have you seen the little piggies
Crawling in the dirt
And for all the little piggies
Life is getting worse
Always having dirt to play around in.
Have you seen the bigger piggies
In their starched white shirts
You will find the bigger piggies
Stirring up the dirt
Always have clean shirts to play around in.
In their styes with all their backing
They don't care what goes on around
In their eyes there's something lacking
What they need's a damn good whacking.
Everywhere there's lots of piggies
Living piggy lives
You can see them out for dinner
With their piggy wives
Clutching forks and knives to eat their bacon.

The term pig was widely used to refer to both the police and the establishment. Charlie seemed to love the line "What they need's a damn good whacking" and would quote it often. The meaning was quite obvious to the family, the rich white establishment needed to be "whacked". It should be also pointed out that "POLITICAL PIGGY", "PIG", and "DEATH TO PIGS" were written in blood at three of the Manson murder sites.
