MUG SHOTS

Just what sort of mug

Goes on any drug

That isn't properly prescribed?

You might also think

The same of those who drink

And are careless about what's imbibed.

 

But it's what ISN'T said

That does in my head...

What's lost in so many ways:

This stuff doesn't come cheap,

But you hardly hear a peep

About cost and the pocket that pays!

The dealers and the pushers
Of wine, tobacco, drugs
Don't care about your pocket
How much they do you slug

Long as the government gets
Their tax, their bit, their share
'Twill keep on being promoted
No-one'll really care

It all comes down to money
And greed for, must get more
Don't care the damage done folks
Don't care if it makes you poor ?

I could go on - pokies, tobacco. Companies, governments work on vulnerabilities of the weak for their own profit.
