The Crack

entry picture

It’s all changing.

Today it takes a knack to sack.

Then there’s Cyber Jack.

He’ll tell you after a 6-pack

to beware of geeks cause they know to hack.

And they’re hard to track.

Look the capitalist buccaneers are back,

saying to country folk:

“Of peace and quiet your lives might smack

but not for long

cause we're still we’re going to frack”.

Awwww Rose, cheers. Yes I'm all equipped with hard hat and you can say I'm in a drilling mood. Big time.

I was tempted to title it: "Frack You" then changed my mind.
