SO at last a toll they ll levy	A
For the passing fool who sings	B
Take the harp grown dull and heavy	A
With the dried blood on the strings	B
Let us sing and sing right gaily	A
For the wreath is on our brow	C
Are you hearin Victor Daley	A
We are fashionable now	C
	-
Once the greatest earl could flout us	D
And the meanest scribe could sneer	E
Nought too bad to say about us	D
Nought too hard for us to hear	F
Slaves to journal owning Neroes	D
And we died no matter how	C
We re sweet singers now and heroes	D
We are fashionable now	C
	-
Once we suffered all save gaol if	G
We d no rich admirers near	E
And our sole guest was the bailiff	H
And our only comfort beer	E
Now we ll dine with toffs and ladies	D
Who shall clasp our hands and bow	C
Let the pale muse go to Hades	D
We are fashionable now	C
	-
Once we had to be contented	I
With the Palace of the Mind	J
While our coats were washed and mended	K
And our pants were patched behind	J
Now by goose knights we are measured	L
While the lordly tailors bow	C
And our worn out pants are treasured	L
We are fashionable now	C
	-
Once when stony broke and mournful	M
We put our petition clear	E
Then our country cold and scornful	M
Answered Go and get a beer	E
And it threw the tray bit at us	D
Just to stop our silly row	N
Now it s champagne spreads and satis	D
We are fashionable now	C
	-
Once our grandest lines were drivel	M
And our wisest words were rot	O
All our teachings false and evil	M
To be sneered at and forgot	O
Now our silliest clack delights em	P
Doggerel their feelings plow	C
And our shallow bluff affrights em	P
We are fashionable now	C
	-
I adore the Swagman Drover	Q
When the World was Round But ah	R
While the Billy s Boiling Over	Q
Is too awfully hurrah	R
Thus the maiden trills and gushes	D
While her johnnie knots his brow	C
And the fair young maiden blushes	D
We are fashionable now	C
	-
I like your book Mr Lawson	S
Clancy of the Overflow	N
Better far than Mr Banjo s	D
When Your Pants Begin to Go	N
No I am no longer snarling	T
Long ago we had our row	N
Don t be angry Banjo darling	T
Though I m fashionable now	C
	-
I am feeling young and restive	U
Skittish more than I can tell	V
Skipping with a skip that s festive	U
Singing with a gladsome yell	V
I will let my hair grow longer	Q
Storm tossed from my stormy brow	C
I am going strong and stronger	Q
For I m fashionable now	C
	-
We shall write lines to their poodles	D
Darlings of Society	A
Praise the blatant cad who boodles	D
Write odes to the Divorcee	A
Let at last Australia know its	D
Brilliant circles anyhow	C
We re the Doo dah Doo dah Poets	D
We are fashionable now	C
