Now the Wobble went out on the roaring tide	A
With a dry dog trotting along by its side	A
Went over the sea and I vow right here	B
That the Wobble went out with its views as clear	C
As ever the views of a Wobble could be	D
And the Wobble went out and over the sea	D
	-
Went over the sea for to represent	E
The folk of our island continent	F
Went over to England where dukes and lords	G
And princes and barons and earls in hordes	G
And bankers and boodlers and scores of Jews	H
Were burning to hear of Australia's views	H
	-
the Wobble went over to advertise	I
For it was a Wobble of goodly size	I
The things that we grow and the things that we breed	J
Our eggs and our bacon and butter and seed	J
The health of our air and the worth of our earth	K
For it was a Wobble of generous girth	K
And it's quite a true saying as ev'ryone knows	L
A Wobble's a Wobble wherever it goes	L
	-
The Wobble went forth from its native land	M
And when they espied it adrift on the Strand	M
All the American tourists laff't	D
'Why if that ain't the double of our old TAFT '	-
And when it appeared later on in The Row	N
All the duchiest duchesses viewed the show	N
And they said 'There is nothing can advertise	I
A country so well as a Wobble of size '	-
	-
And they asked it along for a feed and a swill	O
And a talk after dinner as Englishmen will	O
And there's nothing on earth like a gabble and gobble	P
Appeals to a healthy and well bred Wobble	P
And when it arose at the festive board	Q
The barons and aldermen loudly roared	Q
With the dukes and the generals 'That's the bloke	R
That's the famous and only Australian Joke	R
	-
'It's the Globular Jest with the Monocled Eye	S
That makes the Australians augh till they cry	S
The bankers and boodlers and Park Lane Jews	H
Wept great glad teara in the jellies and stews	H
The Lord High Chancellor spllt his vest	T
While the baronets admirals peers and the rest	T
Agreed with the bishops and Irish M P 's	U
That no funnier Wobble came over the seas	V
	-
The Wobble gazed solemnly round the board	Q
While England's nobility shouted and roared	Q
But it didn't enlarge on the things that we grow	N
Or the things that we breed or we dig no	N
But it struck a delightfully humorous note	W
As it dealt with the things we at intervals float	W
And it gravely declared that as ev'ryone knows	L
A feller's far better without any clothes	X
	-
	-
'For a man ' said the Wobble 'that uses his cash	Y
For his personal needs is exceedingly rash	Y
He should gather his money and bury it in	Z
A bit of old bagging or kerosene tin	Z
At the end of the garden then hasten to pop	A2
His garments and things at his relative's shop	A2
He should hurry to Uncle and cheerfully float	W
A loan on his boots and his hat and his coat	W
	-
'And when you have blewed all that little advance	B2
Don't dig up your money not by any chance	B2
But pawn your etceteras weskit and socks	C2
And the spare shirt and collars you keep on the box	C2
For it's better for Uncle and better for you	D2
And better by far for the little ones too	D2
And the whole darn family's more content	E
When the wardrobe is soaking at four per cent '	-
	-
O every baton and duke and lord	Q
He clung to the table and shrieked and roared	Q
And the Lord Chief Justice was heard to declare	E2
That a Wobble so droll was exceedingly rare	E2
And all the financiers COHEN and MOSES	F2
Laughed till the tears trickled over their noses	G2
And ev'ryone shouted with hearty 'Ho ho's '	-
'Just fancy a Wobble without any clothes '	-
	-
The Baron of Bath threw a fit and his Grace	H2
The Bishop of Brixton went black to the face	H2
And I put it to you as a man to a man	I2
Do you honestly think that Australia can	I2
Ever hope to be blessed with another such prize	I
As a humorous Wobble to advertise	I
For it's quite a true saying as ev'ryone knows	L
A Wobble's a Wobble wherever it goes	L
