THE CURSE OF EL-DWEEBO
The curse of El-Dweebo
has finally been lifted
And a great weight was removed
from our shoulders,
After seven years of being stiffed
The stone-throwers turned
from pebbles to boulders.
The curse of El-Dweebo
has finally departed
With Jeff Kennett’s evil regime,
Victoria at last is restarted
The sesspool of Kennett-ism at last
has been cleaned.
The curse of El-Dweebo
finally has ended
Our hearts, like this state,
now can truly soar,
This broken locale can be mended
As we clean out the sty,
of the fascist boors.
The curse of El-Dweebo
at last, has been broken
Anarchy has been ended at last,
The voice of the people
has very loudly spoken
As voters pulled away
this red devil’s masque.
The curse of El-Dweebo
has now been “Jeffed”
He’ll find that there’s no
hiding place left,
His Thousand-Year Reich
has totally been cleft
And this poor state of Victoria
has once again been blessed.
