Jez Ya Good Ya Mongrel

play mp3 or

Way way outback in Australia
Just a few minutes ago
Came some shocking news we already knew
But didn't really want to know
They told of untold things ... abuse
Alcohol and and social pollution
And Johnny Howard come and had a look
And said "this isn't a problem, it's a bloody solution"

Chorus:
Jez ya good ya mongrel
You pulled another one out of the hat
You got the opposition sittin back sayin
"Now how did he do that?
I mean it's baby overboard time again
Only this time they're all Black"
He's using smoke and mirrors
Just to get the Party back on track

In our little dreamtime
There's a petrol station every hundred yards
And the pubs are open 24/7
And we sit down all day playin cards
The police are there for laughin at
Or at least for chuckin stones
And politicians stay in Canberra
A leave us mob alone

But in Johnny's little dreamtime
He's in the Lodge for three more years
And when he's standing tall when he's really small
And he's playin on our fears
Like Houdini and Madrake before him eh?
He's pulled another one off the shelf
God it's a funny little dreamtime
When you wake up to yourself

Chorus:
Jez ya good ya mongrel
You pulled another one out of the hat
You got the opposition sittin back sayin
"I mean how did he do that?
It's baby overboard time again
Only this time they're all Black"
And he's using smoke and mirrors
To get the Polly back on track

Yes he's using smoke and mirrors
To get the Party back on track
