The Humour Of The Larrikin


The Humour Of The Larrikin
By Lord R.e. Taylor

There was a time
Not so awfully long ago
Comedy was meant to be funny
Political correctness didn’t exist
In movies, television and live
Performers could be offensive
And no one ever cared
Humour was meant to be funny
Everyone knew that
And everyone laughed
No one cried, whined, or complained
A few performers gained god status
Now, they are considered demons
Times have completely changed
And the humour of the larrikin
Well, it became extinct
And the world is the worse off for it

Dedicated to the world’s best larrikin
George Carlin
