We Didn't Read the File

Nats Win, New Gummint, smile and wave, Jobs Summit
Bike Track, 4 Day Week, Gluckman made Chief Science Geek

Silent runs, GFC, lax deposit guarantees
Garrett, Rodney, Supercity, Melissa "Lost Highway" Lee

Barbies, beer with Prince Will, Tax cuts from English Bill
Hiking GST and motorcycle rego fees

Suspending democracy in ECan's Otautahi
Irrigation, irritation, dairy saturation please!

We didn't read the file
We'd rather be on Breakfast
Or a Radio Live talkfest
We didn't read the file
There's no time to read it
In the middle of a photo op

Richard Worth, Pansy Wong, Paul Quinn not missed once gone
Simon Power, 'nother story, Bankers grabbed that useful Tory

De-fanged regs in Bolger's time, now Leaky Homes, Pike River Mine
The details are too gory, now we tell another story

Look over there, it's a Hobbit! Actors' union told to shove it
Paul Henry, Dikshit, sounds like us, what a hit

Public Service cutbacks, Bill's Zero Budget
Allan Hubbard, empty cupboard, Christchurch shuddered, now we're buggered!

We didn't read the file
We'd rather be on Breakfast
Or a Radio Live talkfest
We didn't read the file
There's no time to read it
In the middle of a photo op

Rugbyhead World Cup, three way hand-shake stuff up
Tea with Banks turns to custard, Police called, MSM busted

MV Rena grounded, Colin's mental party founded
Act turgid, Greens surged, Labour still cannot be trusted

TV debate, "Show Me the Money", Phil Goff the headlight bunny
Joyce spin, narrow win, Peters dances on a pin

Winston First is back, slipping in his new List pack
It didn't look like he was trying, wasn't his niche set on dyin'?

We didn't read the file
We'd rather be on Breakfast
Or a Radio Live talkfest
We didn't read the file
There's no time to read it
In the middle of a photo op

Judith Collins, John Judge, Nick Smith, ACC fudge
Sky City, Conference sites, pokie machine rights

National Standards, ropey data, League Tables, Hekia Parata
Charter schools, unlicenced tools, long tails, Aussie Rules

Paula Bennett beyond caring, leopard skin diversions flaring
Chasing crumbs and solo Mums, no-one touches the Super bums

Kim Dotcom Armed Raid, GCSB brain fade
TPP, Fair Trade, Hollywood Kool Aid

We didn't read the file
We'd rather be on Breakfast

The photo ops go on and on and on...
