Don Johnson Poet Ballad

Underdoggy

Underdog

Could you support  the underdog,
Could you take the poor mans part,
Could you support the fat rich hogs,
Yet money it’s all about.
More dollars 4 the super rich,
In a trough 4 piggy’s snout.


Public servants in their thousands,
Sacked, lose their houses have no doubt,
Secret police to watch em, 
Crawlers, to dob em in and shout,
(informers encouraged  to talk about public servants)


Ex miners Aussie workers,
 no job in the mines about,
 blacklisted on computer,
overseas worker, take the job no doubt,
is the country still in drought?

So you are the bosse’s crawler,
And you love him just the same,
Will you be a crawler, still,
If he sacks ya, petty lame?
Or a crawler once again.

Russell Sivey July 9, 2012 at 8:45 PM Wow, this is quite the mighty write my friend! It says a lot within these verses! I really enjoyed the wonderful lines you have so masterfully crafted together Don! I especially liked the line, "So you are the bosse's crawler," what a terrific line there! I just get the whole picture ever just with that one line! Great Work!!
