Banjo Paterson - The Protest
Work rating: Low

I say `e isn`t Remorse!
`Ow do I know?
Saw `im on Riccarton course
Two year ago!
Think I`d forget any `orse?
Course `e`s The Crow!
Bumper Maginnis and I
After a "go",
Walkin` our `orses to dry,
I says "Hello!
What`s that old black goin` by?"
Bumper says "Oh!
That`s an old cuddy of Flanagan`s —
Runs as The Crow!"

Now they make out `e`s Remorse.
Well, but I know.
Soon as I came on the course
I says "`Ello!
`Ere`s the old Crow."
Once a man`s seen any `orse,
Course `e must know.
Sure as there`s wood in this table,
I say `e`s The Crow.

(Cross-examied by the Committee.)

`Ow do I know the moke
After one sight?
S`posin` you meet a bloke
Down town at night,
Wouldn`t you know `im again when you meet `im?
That`s `im all right!

What was the brand on `is `ide?
I couldn`t say,
Brands can be transmogrified.
That ain`t the way —
It`s the look of a `orse and the way that `e moves
That I`d know any day.

What was the boy on `is back?
Why, `e went past
All of a minute, and off down the track.
— "The `orse went as fast?"
True, so `e did! But my eyes, what a treat!
`Ow can I notice the `ands and the seat
Of each bumble-faced kid of a boy that I meet?
Lor`! What a question to ast!
(Protest Dismissed)
