THE YEAR OF Ts : TOXIC TERMITE TONY TROUBLES TRAGIC TURNCOAT TURNBULL
AND OVERSEAS WE SEE TWITTERING TRUMP TORMENTS ALL THINKERS! by Dale Dengate, 2015

TUNE: Villikins and his Dinah.video Much sung street ballad in the sixties, which started with: There was a rich merchant who in London did dwell….. and ended with the death of Dinah from a cup of cold pizen ... SO ...

There was a rich merchant who in Canberra did dwell,
But he faced a big problem till his right wing he’d quell.
‘Twas led by a fellow, termite tony by name,
Who was very adept at just playing his game.

Chorus:
Singing Turali urali urali eh.
Entitlements for me but not for you, eh!

No sniping or wrecking, no leaking or a-betting.
No self-serving claims; those are just not my aims,
Says tough termite tony to his troubled leader.
Those rumours are phony like an archbishop’s plead-ing,

Chorus:
Singing Turali urali urali eh.
Entitlements for me but not for you, eh!

Now all you old pollies take warning by me
Though a unit on the Gold Coast looks enticing to thee
Take a look at your own mob, for your seat they might rob
Spoken - Instead of Villikins and his Dinah,-
Think of old toxic tony with his ‘cup of cold of Pizen’.

Chorus:
Singing Turali urali urali eh.
Entitlements for me but not for you, eh!
