Protect us Prospectus

Finish your dinner
There are children starving

That was mom's refrain
Card carrying member
Of Depression Era
Clean plate club

Pick the country du jour
There were hungry people
There are hungry people
Getting hungrier
Very soon
Getting hangry
And hangrier 

Sure aid measures
Are stop gap
Now we will see 
When we stop 
Stopping the gap
Around the world
And here at home

I was lucky then
I am lucky now
But as the prospectus states
Past performance 
Is no guarantee
Of future performance
One of life's fine print
Little disclaimers
