More local bad news...
For good the bosses say,
Old Jim remembers his first day,
Down the years and far away.
The dole opened early today,
Long queues sweat and sway,
Young Jim signs on for state pay,
Down the years and far away.

A sigh of the times
The factory closed early today,For good the bosses say,
Old Jim remembers his first day,
Down the years and far away.
The dole opened early today,
Long queues sweat and sway,
Young Jim signs on for state pay,
Down the years and far away.
