Song Information:

Michael Aird MLC, the Treasurer of Tasmania some time ago had an intimate, fund-raising gathering wherefor eleven guests paid $2000 each.

Song Lyrics:

Michael Aird, you hardly cared
how much you squared away;
you were sadly ill-prepared,
so you're deeply in the merde.

Some word has only now leaked out of a little meeting
wherein the treasurer raised funds by some sly entreating.
If he sought publicity then that was self-defeating;
on the talk-back radio he really copped a beating:-
Were there higher charges for some preferential seating?
Did some have to pay a tip for an official greeting?
Aird ignored the pensioners who can't afford home-heating;
he'd no thought of waiting lists while fat cats sat there eating;
and who does Airdy think he is? Someone like Paul Keating?
Others were more critical, though I'd not call it cheating.
He just might console himself that all such fame is fleeting,
but we've had enough of that the chorus needs repeating...

Michael Aird, you never shared
what you welfared that day.
and you ought not to have dared,
now you're deeply in the merde.
Michael Aird, you hardly cared
how much you squared away;
you were sadly ill-prepared,
so you're deeply in the merde.
