F1? F---NO!

$250 million dollars of Austin's taxes
given to a for profit company
with no reimbursement nor profit share?
BAD DEAL! (NOT IN MY NAME!)
Carbon emissions and traffic densities environmental damage?
ABSOLUTELY BAD DEAL!(NOT IN MY NAME!
Haircut Governor squatting off our paying-for-his-rent
Get back to the Governor's Mansion!(until the election!-then
Let Bill White close this dumb deal down!
Who needs millionaire toy games
destroying wilderness areas?
Who needs more car pollution/traffic mess?
Who actually needs F1?Not we who live here-
it is done for the benefit of the rich
LET THEM PAY FOR IT!
Profit if ye will but not from us
We who have no interest in F1
but are stuck with a $250 million price tag
even when we can barely navigate Mopac nor IH35
Toll roads are a ripoff
Ring roads are tolled too high
Lessen the traffic mess
Drop the F1 on its profit motive
and let the rich pay for their own sports
NOT US!
