He went & dissed βbottom feedingβ folk
Like hardship was some kind of fuckin' joke
Then stared as if the backlash
Was all just staged stunt smoke
And right on cue, the pundits came
Chanting their protective claim:
βThe public just needs to get to know him!β
Like a ritual theyβd memorised in a cult
So byeβbye to another Luxon misfire
From the Te Puke/Hawaii fib to the Parliament quagmire
And the media rose up like a cultic choir:
βOnce the public gets to know him, heβll poll higherβ¦
Once the public gets to know him, heβll poll higher.βπΆπ΅

A long, long time ago; well, not that long, we all know
Luxon tried to sound profound n' wise
But e'ery time he grabbed a mic
Heβd drop a line that didnβt quite
Make the trip from brain to public eyes

Iβm actually really fucking angry.
Iβve had fuck-all sleep.
We have a government that clearly does not give a flying shit about what happens to any of us, & steadfastly refuse to acknowledge the damage climate change is wreaking on us just to pay their donors. The self-serving pack of wankers π€¬

It stars Emma Thompson and Colin Firth so that should sell it. It has a sequel and plenty of in jokes for adults.

I saw a thing about a symptom of people with fetal alcohol syndrome having a thin top lip and now Iβm wondering if thatβs why he is what he is, a vengeful tinkerer.
