If your living expenses and
Utilities are steady climbing
And the wages are not
Even if you're on a fix income
It's a recipe for disaster

Of my old school mates
cheeky John Doody
from Ascot Vale West
I remember best
one of the great heroes
from the West Gate Bridge disaster.

The crimson pain.

The disaster,
The death from what we feel.

and friendship can go down fast
