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 cannot 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.
