THE MAD MONK c. John Dengate 2009, TUNE: Vilikins and His Dinah/Dinky Di/Sweet Betsy from Pike etc

Oh dear, just how low have the Liberals sunk.
They’ve chosen as leader the raving mad monk.
A royalist ratbag, a popish ex-pug:
Reactionary Tory, the monarchist thug.

They’ve sacked Malcolm Turnbull and put in his stead
A bloke who’s been punched far too hard, round the head;
Too many left hooks which rather explains
The crackpot ideas that roll round his brains.

It’s enough to send Methodists out on a binge –
He’s a punchy ex-priest from the lunatic fringe
A failed Father Tony who’s frightened of hell
And raises his fists at the sound of a bell.

They’ve chosen as leader a real troglodyte,
A cruiserweight lout from the party’s far right
A punch-throwing papist. Oh, times must be grim
For the Tories to choose a mad bastard like him,

Repeat first verse.
