The Persistence of Time or I should have built a 'retrospectascope'

'Growing up'


I had no sibling, sister or brother

So I listened to Dad and Mother

 

But one day I realised

What they said was

Utter Bollocks!

 

I was often told at school

Not to play the bloody fool

 

But one day I realised

What they said was

Management Bollocks!

 

Grandees of Commerce and State

Agree it’s a sad but true fact of fate

That you need loads of losers

To make just a few big winners

 

But one day I realised

What they said was

Economic Bollocks!
