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.
