Things My Dad Taught Me
He was a good bloke.

always shake hands standing up!
don’t jump when you’re holding a beer
always look a man in the eye
be nice to ya sister and ya mum
don’t let a friend drive drunk or angry
never smoke a blokes last cigarette
make sure you’re out of bed before ten
keep your bread in the freezer
a frozen slice saves
always chew your food
with your mouth closed
and brush your teeth
after every single meal
don’t ever fart in a tent
he said and he
was quite adamant
never ever go three on a match
don’t spend more than
twenty bucks on the pokies
and if you win good
he said
take it all and run like fuck
run like fuck away
not to the track
not to your dealer
take it and get
take it and get
take it and get
get you and get her
get some nice
