8 1998 mr prime minister, to be honest, im kind of disgusted with the state of country and i am holding you responsible. ive got no diseases, no birthmarks, im not black, im not female, sure im jewish, but basically im a straight white male, and i still understand why there is a feather left for me to ruffle. mr minister, im queasy every time i read the newspaper. i read about the new flag the country is demanding and whether our should a southern cross or not and i cant believe its even worth the discussion. i want to see a giant on our flag. i want it made of velvet and in glitter. i want a that is worthy of a solid burning. i want to know why isnt our prime a homosexual? i was personally more interested in whether or not paul keating grabbed the queens any of the issues that you seem to be tackling. mr prime minster, why do you always wear and grey? are you hiding something? are you of us? i still believe there is a feather left for me to ruffle. i want to know why there are accents all over my television set. as far as im concerned, is a german philosopher. why do all australian rock musicians sing in american why are there no australian musicians? mr prime minister, why doesnt australia a black panther party? where is our bob where is our warhol? why do you make me sound like a third rate allen dont me. what do you know about anyway. why dont we anything in school? perhaps that was a sweeping generalization but i just twelve years of it and i know how to spell your but cannot be bothered to write it down. why am i so ashamed of where i am from? i sit up all night infomercials and parliamentary and i cannot think of one reason to travel to canberra. i am waiting for you to wear pink. mr minister, are you going to give me a fucking break? i want to see you dancing in glee outside an islamic shrine, or hard copy footage of you doing naughty things in kings cross, and i want to say i knew it away! why do you me? every time i walk out the door, i think you have sent men to watch me in unmarked cars. and i havent even anything. yet. mr prime minister, im as as you are. get me some glamour, mr prime minister, escapism. i want to know why we still havent the aboriginal land right issue. ill give up my house right now, if you will put an end to this. we all know this really our home. stop kidding around. mr prime minister, mr is tired. i havent slept for five days, ive waiting up for reruns of good morning america and i think you have forgotten me. did we become a colony? mr minister, im restless. mr prime minister, i dont like the state we are in, and im you responsible. friend, benjamin lee
