Banjo Paterson - The Reverend MullineuxBanjo Paterson - The Reverend Mullineux
Work rating: Low


I`d reckon his weight as eight-stun-eight, And his height as five-foot-two, With a face as plain as an eight-day clock And a walk as brisk as a bantam-cock Game as a bantam, too, Hard and wiry and full of steam, That`s the boss of the English Team, Reverend Mullineux! Makes no row when the game gets rough None of your "Strike me blue!" "Yous wants smacking across the snout!" Plays like a gentleman out-and-out Same as he ought to do. "Kindly remove from off my face!" That`s the way that he states his case, Reverend Mullineux. Kick! He can kick like an army mule Run like a kangaroo! Hard to get by as a lawyer-plant, Tackles his man like a bull-dog ant Fetches hom over too! Didn`t the public cheer and shout Watchin` him chuckin` big blokes about, Reverend Mullineux! Scrimmage was packed on his prostrate form, Somehow the ball got through Who was it tackled our big half-back, Flinging him down like an empty sack, Right on our goal-line too? Who but the man that we thought was dead, Down with a score of `em on his head, Reverend Mullineux.
