where's the dollar gone, John?

where's the dollar gone, John?

milk 'n mortgage,
this week's shortage,
pumped up petrol,
sky-way highway!


greedy grocers,
grasping profit,
P.R. T.V., A.M. P.M.,
dictate edicts,
preening pollie's,
ego antics!

craven cowards,
coddle howard's,
hostage roster,
for our future!

how will I afford to live, John?

training traming,
buses taxis,
public transport,
delays constant!

tollway etag,
today all day,
next pay they say,
hip hop hooray!

cash up cash out,
damn it dry out,
drink up cess pit,
water wallet!

how will I afford to die?

excess State-hood,
dictate your fate,
'til your bankrupt,
gone wrong dead on,
sell all ebay,
no more, G'DAY!!!!

This poem is meant to be read presto (fast) and almost staccato like, (short sharp accent on each syllable), in timing; each line is four beats, ('da da' 'da da') split in sets of two syllables.

Hopefully the slight musicality and pace of it makes up for the lack of serious import!

Although, I think I may have a few sympathisers out there, who agree the current government is a pain in the bum!!

oh...one other note, the line every three verses, the question to John, , is read slowly, with a slightly sarcastic drawl.

fog,

Got into it right from the start, without instruction, but the instruction was still good.

John Howard's government or all governments?

Oh, fog, really, you know the very wealthy must be allowed to get even wealthier and greedier and those people in their cars should just get out and walk in a toll free zone, wherever they'll find that.

Happy little children 1,2,3, ---mummy, daddy, can you feed me please?

Brilliant work and fantastic explanations and all very well done, I loved it, politics aside.

Thanks Katyzzz,
yes I agree, it applies to all government here, Labor or Liberal, but, I have to say little Johnny and his gang are right up there when it comes to using subterfuges to strip away our democratic rights, and worker's rights!

However, it remains to be seen, if Rudd et al gets in, whether he wil attempt to restore our democratic rights and curtail the ever increasing 'police state' mentality.

cheers
fog
