The End of the World Just In Time

I was watching a TV debate The programme was running too late Several topics had to be discussed The participants they would not be rushed The studio lights were set low As arguments swept to and fro Fingers pointing and tempers got lost In this satire of low budget cost Political issues created uproar As inflation was all set to soar Then the balance of the euro and so The economy recovery so slow But the thing that made me so laugh Was this, cos it sounded so daft The presenter on his feet he did shift And ended a debate ho so swift He said, ladies and gents may I please End this discussion on African disease Time is passing so fast There is one more discussion, one last He stood there microphone in his hand And cut the last argument so he can Debate the “end of the world” Before the “end of the programme”
