No Longer A Fair Go in Australia

Australia used to be

The land of the fair go

But that's gone now

It drowned

In the sea of self focus.

I only agree

With a fair go for 'we'

If I get more

Than you,

Then it is a fair go

I can get into.

Fear has replaced hope

Because it suits the politicians

For us to all believe

the country is broke,

Then they can give the spoils

To the people

Who pay them

The most.

We are governing

For everyone,

Which is true,

If you understand

'Everyone' is them

And the rich

They are,

Or wanna be.

You got nothing

That's because you are lazy

And you just don't

Try hard enough.

A bad life

Full of strife

Is an inconvenient truth

For the silver spoons

In charge.
