War chest, what war chest

Citizen A:

Our war chest is lean

And $1bn is needed

Lawmakers say 'aye'

Citizens ask why?

Citizen B:

Our glutton to feed

That this war must be won

What glutton we ask

What war and what chest?

Citizen A:

The glutton is government

The war insurgency

Citizen B:

Which war chest we ask again

Citizen A:

On paper it’s this war

In practice it is...

Sorry it’s quarter past 8pm

My bed time is here

I cannot talk more

Citizen B:

What has quarter past 8 got to do with sleep, war and war chest?

Citizen A:

Quarter past 8pm is 20:15 stupid!

Citizen B:

And the war chest?

Citizen A:

Sorry, I can’t help you. I said 2015, so use your head!
