Nursery Rhymes

There's a very amusing ad campaign running on TransPerth trains and buses at the moment, it involves re-written versions of famous nursery rhymes, targeting specific issues that annoy regular users of public transport.

For example, there are ads that cover topics such as people not allowing others to leave the train before they push their own way on, people not getting to the bus stop on time causing delays for other passengers and so on.

I think they've left a huge hole in their coverage, and so I now offer a couple of extra nursery rhymes that probably should have been part of the campaign:


Sing a song of commuting

A tale full of woe

When a little drizzle falls

All the trains go slow

Peak hour trains have three cars

When they really should have six

All because the government

Are useless, tight-arsed pricks.



TransPerth, TransPerth After Dark

Just like walking through Central Park

Muggings and bashings on the Armadale Line

Trains to Midland full of tramps drinking wine

TransPerth TransPerth, In The Night

Sure to give a nasty fright


If you see any of these in poster form, let me know so I can go and claim my royalties :)
