(To anyone who doesn’t know, blue is the colour of the NZ National party, and John Key, ex PM, left parliement yesterday)
“My My, Hey Hey (Out Of The Blue)”
My my, hey hey
Rock and roll is here to stay
It’s better to burn out
Than to fade away
My my, hey hey.
Rock and roll is here to stay
It’s better to burn out
Than to fade away
My my, hey hey.
Out of the blue
and into the black
They give you this,
but you pay for that
And once you’re gone,
you can never come back
When you’re out of the blue
and into the black.
The king is gone
but he’s not forgotten
This is the story
of a Johnny Rotten
It’s better to burn out
than it is to rust
The king is gone
but he’s not forgotten.
Hey hey, my my
Rock and roll can never die
There’s more to the picture
Than meets the eye.
Hey hey, my my.
(Neil Young).
Yep! … So long DonKey? … WonKey? … whatever … and dont forget to bore everyone shit-less when you write your auto-bio … maybe an article or two in ‘Woman’s Day’ or something … Don’t forget to stay alert lil’ Johnny … we need more Lert’s like you to ‘sniff’ out those deals that ultimately bury us more in global poo. So in the tradition of national blues (you’ve certainly given a lot of us the blues lil’ Johnny) here’s some jumbled words from ‘Kings’ by Steely Dan .. with of course no political significance …
“Raise up your glass to good king John”/
“his name lives on .. and on”/
“Roll out the bones and raise up your pitcher” /
“Raise up your glass to good King John”/
So farewell lil’ Johnny … the whales thank-you for the blasting you gave them … that Global Poo agenda certainly thanks you for allowin’ them to move’ our tectonic plates just a ‘wee’ bit – the people of CH-CH (and beyond) are real stoked with that one John! … the old and weary that vote with ol’ Winston thank-you for reminding us that their vote dont count anyway cause they’re all gonna be dead soon (watch what you say in cafe’s John!) … pushing ‘dirty’ (fluoridated) water on us and telling us its healthy, while banning all the good medicine cause it aint good for business to have a whole lot of healthy Lerts running round NZ … all the kafuffle as you tried to involve us with a flag change (who gives a monkey’s what it looks like John when your hungry) … Some things youve left alone …where still property of ‘Queenie’ (ask the gov’ner baby) … all the social welfare that still gets spent on bitumen and the like … and ‘wining and dining’ your oil companies for a few xtra bucks … Ah, lil’ Johnny … you have been nothing short of a legend … even if your ‘partnered trade deals’ fell to bits with Trumpty’s rise to fame … so fare thee well knave of profit and all things mis-appropriated and non-sustainable … and truly from the bottom of my heart … I know its been a hard road, and you cant keep everyone happy Johnny … all those people blaming you for the screw-ups … lil’ Johnny – thats politics man. So I leave you with this thought … Politics is not about business John … it is about people. You come on back now ya’ all – (Texan oily overtones here lil’ Johnny) – when your ready to embrace that concept.
