Of the Year of Our Lord, 2008!
The World turning upside down!
Like a Circus Clown!
It is the sealing of our fate!
January was the start!
And my Mum had to part!
Beadle's no longer about!
So I'd no longer watch out!
Like Homer without Bart!
Then after the Burial session!
On came serious depression!
Then came the confession!
To the Doctor in Coagh!
New Stewartstown ones were a Joke!
Then my birthday in June is was more merry!
I went over to a Hotel in Kilkenny!
The TV sets in the Bar showed Centre Court!
Using my up my Euro Notes and Cent Pennies!
The news preached a Financial Fort!
Then came the Credit Crunch!
And the woes of the Banks!
Governments under scrutiny Worldwide!
Media gives no thanks!
They look to Corporations!
For a form of Business Salvation!
From September onwards in the Year!
The Business environment is Clear!
But the Petrol is no longer as deer!
Just have to avoid Flights!
Stay near!
So that was the story of Last Year!
Suddenly everything becomes Clear!
The Modern World has a new Chapter!
"I believe!", said a Happy Clapper!
