The Covid History of Australia I

Australia was zerocovid,
with quarantine and tracing set up too.
That kept the virus at bay.
But too many people were coming into the country,
It was only a matter of time before the virus broke away,
from HQ into the community. 

Scott Morrison wanted to open the borders anyway.
He done most of the damage.
He wanted to dish out orders again.
So he gently pushed Gladys Berejiklian,
To let the virus out into the community
And go for some sort of vaccine herd immunity.

He tricked all the Premiers too
"Use your powers to mandate"
feel that power, feel that energy 
Well, Daniel Andrew jumped straight into the lake
He made a bloody big mistake
Then he tries to mandate

Daniel Andrew set Australia on a path
From which it can never recover
There is no turning back the clock
covid zero will be lost, lock stock and barrel
Annastacia Palaszczuk will make the same mistake.
For Gawd's sake they have sealed our fate

The other states will follow soon
Tasmania, SA, and NT too
I keeping thinking it must be a full moon
For tourism, for wealth and for prosperity they said. 
But they forget about health and med
let it be clearly said

Western Australia does not have to follow
But probably will
Which makes it a bitter pill to swallow 
Mark McGowan is mandating the vax
In a state with zero covid
for   sake, en relax
