Its not about oil.


I wrote this poem `Its not about Oil?` to show how ridiculous the system is in the UK when a young man or woman can fight and die for their country but they cannot legally buy a drink in a pub watch an 18 certificate movie at the cinema (Ironically it could be about war) or even have the right to vote.


Roll up boys and girls

Come take the Queens shilling
Iraqs better than the dole
The scenery is thrilling

This is no Crusade
Has nothing to do with Bush
Move along, sit down
No need to crush

How old are you son?
17 good lad
You cant vote for Blair
But your Parents will be glad

That youre in good hands
Your career we will further
But if you actually fire that rifle
We may do you for murder
