(With apologies to Banjo Paterson)
There was movement in the Party, for the word had passed around
that The Man from Snowy Hydro was a dud,
and they’d lose the next election if a saviour wasn’t found
who could drag their reputation from the mud.
So they hunkered down in corners and they muttered into phones
as they polished up their leader-stabbing knives,
and ignored the gleeful chuckles of the traitor known as Tones
who was stuffing up their born-to-rule-us lives.
“Can you save us, Peter Dutton?” was a cry that could be heard,
or perhaps there were a few who fancied Scott,
but it didn’t really matter, they were polishing a turd
that would soon be flushed away and left to rot.
