CHORUS
And I always look up to the sky
Pray before the dawn
Cause they fly away
Sometimes they arrive
Sometimes they are gone
They Fly on
Flock of birds
Hovering above
Into smoke I'm turned
And rise, following them up
CHORUS
One minute they arrive
Next you know they’re gone
They fly on

Songs and Poems:
Fly,
Far away from these noxious surroundings
And cleanse yourself in the pure air above.
And drink, the clear fire that fills lucid spaces.
As you would a pure and divine liqueur.
Behind the nuisances, and the vast chagrins.
Amassing with their weight our bewildered existence.
Happy is he,
Who can, with a vigorous wing.
Propel towards the luminous and serene realms.
He whose thoughts,
Like larks. Free, in the morning
Take flight.
Hover over life,
And understand with ease.
The language of flowers and silent things!

Introduction
The line graph compares the fast food consumption of teenagers in Australia between 1975 and 2000, a period of 25
years.
Overview
Overall, the consumption of fish and chips declined over the period, whereas the amount of pizza and hamburgers that
were eaten increased.
Giving detail
In 1975, the most popular fast food with Australian teenagers was fish and chips, being eaten 100 times a year. This
was far higher than Pizza and hamburgers, which were consumed approximately 5 times a year. However, apart from
a brief time again from 1980 to 1985, the consumption of fish and chips gradually declined over the 25 year timescale
to finish at just under 40.
In sharp contrast to this, teenagers ate the other two fast foods at much higher levels. Pizza consumption increased
gradually until it overtook the consumption of fish and chips in 1990. it then leveled off from 1995 to 2000. The
biggest rise was seen in hamburgers as the occasions they were eaten increased sharply throughout the 1970's and
1980's exceeding that of fish and chips in 1985. it finished at the same level that fish and chips began, with
consumption at 100 times a year.
