The Prime Minister of Australia by the Aussie voters empowered <br />You know the bloke I'm on about his name is Sir John Howard <br />Though the Sir is yet not ratified by her majesty his queen <br />It would seem a mere formality you must know what I mean. <br /> <br />The man who could not say 'sorry' he tells the people now <br />That the soaring price of motor fuels is beyond him somehow <br />He says the blame is with the big fuel companies it's got nothing to do with me <br />Though he is careful not to mention tax on fuel or his pet the G S T. <br /> <br />But what would John Howard know of the motorist who to work drives many miles each day <br />When for his and his Cabinet colleagues petrol it's the tax payers who pay <br />To the privileged politician everything in life is free <br />And that he blames the big fuel companies seems a cop out to me. <br /> <br />For the hike in petrol prices you must not blame Sir John Howard <br />That blameless little fellow that the people have empowered <br />And though the title Sir not yet ratified by her majesty supreme <br />It is just a mere formality for a favour done 'twould seem.<br /><br />Francis Duggan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/that-blameless-little-fellow/
