Education, Education.
How very well I remember
The Second World War
And Winston Churchill's Coalition.
Parents of grammar school children
Seeked assistance with their mission.
Education was the Act of the day...
School fees were no more,
Great news for the poor.
The school leaving age was increased,
Slightly higher than before.
Yes, an important Act calmed all fears
During those memorable wartime years.

I Loved You...And You Lied
It simply grieves my heart
To even say goodbye
For every single part
Of me just wants to die
And time has all but ceased
My feelings are all numbed
The pain greatly increased
To this heartbreak I succumb
There seems a lost tomorrow
For our dear Love has died
No, You cannot grasp my sorrow
I loved you... and you lied.

When I became governor, spending actually increased 28 percent my first term. Revenue increased 42 percent my first term without raising anybody's taxes. We did it because we had more taxpayers with more taxable income. That's how you get the revenue up. We did that without raising anybody's taxes.

Being A Lover
Why are you angry?
What makes you be this way?
Share your pain with me
I wish you would just talk to me, even if just once
Let me know, how have you been?
Maybe then I would understand you more
As, what lacks between us is the understanding
If it was present, the life would be simply perfect
However, the distance between us always increased
Increased, so much that it even brought the end for us
Do not be angry
Share your sorrow by being my Best Friend
As only then our misunderstanding could ever be solved
Make love to me, even though you know that now only distances are present
Make love to me and change the whole situation by being a lover, instead of a stranger.
