     So few police, it seems thuggery pays

   No hotter topics than murder or theft
     No matter your politics be right or left

Their population on the swell,
The local yokels just couldn't tell,
Why their isolated town called Bugaree,
Red dust and drought for all to see,
Was inundated by a city slicker hell.

Using language bordering on thuggery,
Delivered such a terrible harangue,
Abusing listeners when they rang,

Poli-tricking that is
Bringing the

for the heinous crime
of thuggery and skullduggery

where the skeletons are buried
only the gravedigger knows
and after all allegedly it was purportedly
merely a murder of crows
