SA, we’re down on our kilowatt
Now what stage are we at?
Is it four or five or six?
We really are in a fix!
Living in all shades of dark
Waiting on candles for a spark
Keeping rechargeable lamps ready
As the grid gets more unsteady
Sliding gate battery’s flat –
It’s just useless to fix up that!
Heatpump stalling yet again –
Can it handle all this strain?
Robots off, shops blacked out
As the shoppers stumble about
Electric fence lacks a charge
Whilst the crooks roam at large
Cellphone towers on the blink
No more chats – time to think!
Where’s this fourth industrial revolution?
Or does the government have no solution?
