To make it clearer I 'd prayed for a colonel to stand I'd already thought the generals might already be Under control.. I was thinking or asking for a serving Colonel thinking he would have enough armed troops To swing the situation in Melbourne, so anyway soon I Saw Riccardo a retired Colonel.. I think that's close enough And because of this, it will be done in as peaceful way as Is possible' God knows all, and best.'
David Hurleys run away, he placed a sign just the other day.' Closed till further notice I've heard.? It's beggars belief upon my word.' I wonder if his door is round.? Like at bag end? And bolted sound? He didnt want those visitors sure.' 1 million people, mostly sore.' Old scomo didn't breath a word.' Or Barnaby or the other nerd.'s.' Like sauraman their peering out, Australians are rising all about Their coming in like swarming bees, the junta will be on its knees.' The henchmen wear the deathmasks still, it's a sign of the sickness on the hill I can smell it's stench.' There's a sweat of fear, though I'm in the UK it's travelled here What can be done.? Know its begun..The unravelling of the number one The fear of fear.' They fostered here, on captive city (what oversteer) i'll bet they sold them noble ideals, they were almost Swiss-Canberrans is this, (for real?) They're the most jabbed people in Oz I hear.? No flies on them, nor covid drear.? You can't be sick and dead at once.' Or even be sacked.' It's the covid jab bounce.' Maybe they're not Australian even? Makes you wonder bout (even stevens) He might just show, you never can tell, just ask old scomo on the edge of hell? Good Grahame Hood, and Riccardo Bosi, they've stood it well and gave out plenty It's pleased I am in both of you, two worthy Aussies, just see thisl° through I can see you're not in each other's pockets, from different positions you fire some rockets' And that's to the good.' You and all the rest; you're building an army; best of the best.' John Larters sound, and Craig Kelly seems too, the Gibson ahead of the other crew.' Your in my prayers, and in my toil, in the tears I've shed in my blood that's boiled Keep it good, your cohesion is key' you've lifted my heart a time or three.' God bless you all just stay the course, I'll cheer you on till my throat is horse And then I'll cheer you on some more, one the pilot I prayed for; who came to the fore.' And a Colonel I spoke of' might one stand?, dear God you heard and that's so grand' Now stick it to them.. Until they fall.) Our God is leading He's (the all in all)
