about

This is a great chorus song - it’s all chorus! It’s one of a series of ‘Rolf Harris’ parodies by my friend Dave Kennedy - who once convinced a punter in the Longyard Hotel (Tamworth) that he was the real Rolf! - John Ross.

lyrics

If you’re from the National Times
And you’d really like to find
All the cops and tape-recorders
Who were following the orders
Of the crooked politician
Seen on national television
With the well known racing figure
Taking compromising pictures
Of the judge that liked to gamble
With the payoffs that he handled
At the court of petty sessions...
