Baggy Bloomers

Baggy  Bloomers
Did u ever stop to wonder about the baggy ass old bean .
It was in the sixties when we had the skin tight jeans.
When it was cool the skin tight jeans and body shirts so fine.
When you could see so shapely the women were sublime.
The army had the baggy ass the bloody Bombay bloomers.
The soldiers hated baggy ass they looked like crap on tuna.
In the seventies fashion brought out baggy ass no one would buy it when.
It wasn't cool no Hippy fool would have it wear it then.
So brainwash the public its cool, just wear this floppy sack.
With your baggy knee length shorts a flopping forth and back.
Shapeless bland and worthless,rag bag ,bloody pppp.
No class or style about it, a hanging on your rack?

Don Johnson
As the old Aussie soldiers would say why would you want to be a baggy ass....

Congrats on your win. I sort of like the baggy knee length shorts on guys, I think it looks neat... don't hold that against me. Maybe it looks better on Canadian buns! ;) Lee

Yes Robert seen lots of changes, don't wear those baggy ass things:) Fashion tried to sell to the sixtys crowd, so the wharehouses were full for about 15 years till they became popular with brainwashing perhaps... on ya mate, Don

Your country is fascinating. I would like to learn more of it. My contest would value an entry on Shamanism in Australia. Would you consider writing us a tale of how god is or was reached through the Shamanic traditions of your homeland? [the contest is called The Shamanic Way] Light & Love
