Suppose Some Have To Lose

In maths or in science he doesn't have his degree And he has not spent much time in university But they loves their P.M. he says what they wish to hear And he know who they love and he know who they fear. The Government he leads are doing quite okay And his true blue backers with him sure to stay The opposition parties in the polls not doing well Their policies to the voters they can't sell. By opposing Land Rights for Aboriginals and jailing refugees His loyal right wing voters he doesn't fail to please By serving the well off in power he'll remain The poor and the downtrod they lose out again. The poor he doesn't serve though I can recall On last Election night he said he'd work for one and all But in the joy of his victory he got carried away And of course he did not mean what he did say. Suppose some have to lose just for others to gain And 'twould seem his high office he is bound to retain And his conservative voters will toast him in his victory But there's one he won't have to thank and that is me.
