Footballs Meat Pies Kangaroos

We love football meat pies kangaroos and Holden cars We’d sing it at home in the playground and in bars The good old days when everything was Australian made But that ended then and now the song did fade So here we are a place whose population Is looking for work in mining tourism and submarine production We look like we did in 1941 No industry no future and looking around for one. © Paul Warren Poetry
