Ain't it funny by Steven Taylor
ain't it funny how the price of gas
does our attention pull, ...
last week a sawbuck was a joke
today it filled tanks quarter full
think deeply about how you feel
as the price of gas recedes
and the precious dollars you will have
to spend on other things you need
the smile and sense of pure relief
felt as you purchase fuel
is a form of propaganda that
bush and his boys use as a tool
think twice as deep y'all, .. I implore, ..
of the covert mind control
our fascist, nazi government
has on your body, mind and soul
4 hundred billion dollars of
the saleries we earn
is being spent on needless wars
so rich white men have cash to burm
the profits made on products like
destoyers, bombs and tanks,
pay for the lavish life styles of
rich racist crakahs with swiss banks
ain't it funny how the price of gas
does our attention pull, ...
last week a sawbuck was a joke
today it filled tanks quarter full

On New Year's Day by Kenn Nesbitt
On New Year's Day a year ago,
I started off the year
by making resolutions
that were probably severe.
I said I'd save my money,
as this seemed so very wise.
I vowed I would improve my health.
I swore I'd exercise.
I stated I would do my homework
every single day.
I'd brush my teeth religiously
to ward off tooth decay.
I'd eat my fruits and vegetables
and keep my bedroom clean.
I'd treat my sister kindly
though she's often very mean.
My resolutions lasted me
about a half a day.
I promised I would keep them
but I broke them anyway.
So now I'm fat and penniless.
My homework's overdue.
My sister's mad. My teeth are bad.
My room is messy too.
And yet I think I may have found
the best of all solutions,
and this year I've resolved
to not make ANY resolutions.

Kinda like no snow on christmas by David Gerardino
HAD a great day today,
found myself a funny
joke, , , , laughed untill i
cried, then i had to spit
it out,
the tast was a restless
sleep, kinda like no snow
on christmas,
HAD a strange night, saw
my friends burn some toast,
ended up in a pickle, or was
that a funny joke,
the tast was a restless sleep,
kinda like no snow on christmas, ,

Joe Ray From Bunyip by Francis Duggan
You don't take him too seriously as he doesn't mean all he say
And he borders the outrageous the funny man Joe Ray
To provoke peals of laughter he goes close to the obscene
The jester of our workplace the reveller supreme.
He's good for entertaining a good laugh every day
And the work place can be boring when big Joe is away,
I've never seen him out of sorts he's always in good mood
And he tell some very funny jokes though some of his punch lines can be crude.
A man in his late forties blond hair and oval face
He makes outrageous statements but his hearts in the right place
When Joe is around there's laughter at what he say and do,
He laugh like kookaburra and he talk like cockatoo.
You meet him in the bar room and he'll shout you pots of beer
And he make the bar maid happy when he say to her 'my dear'
The famed Joe Ray from Bunyip for his wit he's in renown
One of the most endearing characters his side of Melbourne Town
