Doctor Who and the Daleks

 **********

Doctor and the Daleks? I hear you say,

Who can they be? And what an affray,

 On our minds and our wits at this time of appeal,

Of recession, so biting, and scares very real.

 *******************

It’s the DOCTOR, I tell you, the DOCTOR, that’s WHO,

And as for the Daleks, well, my mind is askew,

If I were to explain who they in fact are,

I would need several years, and still not get far.

******************* 

Oh, the DOCTOR, the DOCTOR, you answer me back,

Why didn’t you say so, why didn’t you track,

The way I was feeling, so peeved by the mire,

 Unlike our politicians, in splendid retire?

*******************

In splendid retire, ensconced in their towers,

Of ivory white, not grey and ragged like ours.

They’ll get their comeuppance, of that I am sure

When the Daleks go find them and exterminate those pariahs.
