Matilda blew her didgeridoo
With wallabies hopping two by two
Some dingoes dropped by 
To eat Shepherd's pie
Then off they went with a kangaroo....

Matilda Vampire
Good Evening Matilda
We meet under Silver Moonlight 
Show me your neck Vampires 
Or are you rather a Cider soaked skeleton 
Walking dead white ghost
On the road to the shops 
To injest more wrinkles 
Into oblivion...

Brunhilde, Brunhilde
Alas, where’s Matilda?
You killed, yes you killed a
Sweet waltzer with grace.

Brunhilde, Brunhilde
Foretold, now fulfilled,
A billabong’s filled,
A poor girl’s in that place.

H/T to Maurice Rigoler's Brunhilde...

      Too many Mai Tais, zany Matilda, drank!

      Whoops, she hit the sea-wall and arrested for
      being tanked!

      A big flirt was she, and the Officer fell.

      Now a huge wedding is planned, do tell!

Learning Waltzing Matilda, I instantly knew
Australia was the place for me
I'd live like a swagman with my pet kangaroo
and play under the shade of a Coolibah tree

It was Christmas there in the summer—Cool!
So, I'd greet Santa surfing into the bay
and kids never had to go to school
I'd just swim and play baseball all day!

What am I doing here at seven?
when lucky kids live in an Australian heaven?
