Views in verse - Weekend Warriors


Weekend Warriors
Trump just can't put a foot right it seems
The Redhead's lighting mad Calwell's dream
ISIL now up north declaring war
Indonesia warms to Shariah Law
And ...what damage 'Malcolm in the muddle'...?
Abbott's banking on a second stumble
Blimey! Let's all go out and 'stone the bloody crows'


But, things really aren't quite so bad today...
Electricity's gonna send us all to the cleaners
Coal's good enough to export, not for sensitive demeanours
The government appears a hapless party in it all
Indeed if you made an enlightened call
You would think our political system is bloody imploding
As with the rest of the western world…
But you know, things aren't really quite so bad today…
Rupert's army has all the questions and the cure
Vegemite has mysteriously lost it’s allure
The power of celebrity is defying common sense
Bloke in the pub reckons the world's about to end
Old Fred says we've given up on god
Surrendering 'the ashes' without turning a sod;
Might just be the sad finale to it all!
But you know ...things really aren't quite so bad today:
'We enjoy the odd flutter to raise good cheer
We've got our smokes and few daily beers,
Improvements to health and school have left
The missus 'grinning ' from what she hears
The kid is doing fine in the rugby league
The daughter's loving the fizzy and the dancing beam
Parra showing them a little cheek
The Swans are taking it week by week
With the Blues in the hunt as well...
While ‘the best of it all’ THE WEEKEND's only a day or two away...'
Things REALLY aren't ...quite so bloody bad today!l
