Sieig Heil!

Sieg Heil! Sieg Heil!
It's the right wing CensusFail!
Not where you might expect it
Somewhere previous respected
Not in 'thirties Austria
But far below in sunny Australia
Bureau needs your name and address
To force their enemies to confess
Treacherous traitors everywhere
Taking up space and breathing air

Sieg Heil! Sieg Heil!
"It's an outrage!" in unison they wail
"What is this invasion of privacy!
"What do you need it for precisely?"

The government replies with smug grin:
"It's just so we know who we're rulin' -
An insurance policy for the rich
To differentiate scratch from itch
All those who didn't vote for us
Are clearly insane subnormal dross
So we decide to protect our right
By keeping records of who may fight"

Sieg Heil! Sieg Heil!
The plebs the proles the peasants rail
"We don't want you keeping data!
Not for four years, not thereafter!
We can't trust you, which is why
We voted for the other guy
We don't want you to hold
Any information you barefaced bold
Liars, miscreants, thieves, and cheats
Sitting on your leather seats
You work for us, not us for you,
We'll boycott, donkey, and write in blue!"

Sieg Heil! Sieg Heil!
It's the 2016 CensusFail!
Now the masses and media have spoke
"A survey for surveillance!" as one they croak
But on their words the government smiles
Sickly smarmy, you can see it for miles

"Your information is secretly secure,*
But if you don't like it get a manicure
You don't have to submit it anyway
I mean it'll only cost 180 bucks a day
My poodle's doctor gets paid quite more
[Is that an open window? Try the backdoor!]
But if you want to take it to court
Get a good lawyer, because the laws are fraught!"


*It isn't

Thankyou Taylor :)

It really became quite the fiasco on the night, and still continuing to be one 5 days later. A hopelessly shoddy and sordid mess.
