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”
