            Candidly, I do not hug a             Wish to go to Mugga Mugga; To the Mugga Mugga Mountain by Yassberra`s desert place,             Where they`re planning - more`s the pity -             To erect Australia`s city, To upraise a drouthy city - monument to our disgrace.             `Tis proposed that we shall lug a             Myriad pipes to Mugga Mugga - Water-pipes to get the wetness to the city`s thirsty crowd             Water to ablute and bathe in?             Nay!  The language will be scathin` When the Mugga mugs discover: "NOTICE - BATHING NOT ALLOWED."             Wearily, with jar or jug, a             Citizen at Mugga Mugga Will await his turn for water - wait with bucket, billy-can,             Kerosene-tin - any vessel             That the Cotter`s muddy mess`ll Safely keep in - 0, the weepin` of the Mugga Mugga man!             I can see a future Mugga             Resident arise and tug a Show`r-bath chain without result, then curse aloud and thirst for blood -             Curse the crawling Cotter trickle.             For he will be in a pickle When the Cotter isn`t cotting and Molongolo`s mostly mud.             I`ve a yearn, within, to plug a             Jaw whenever Mugga Mugga Mountain`s mentioned in my hearing, for it makes me very sore.             When I realise Dalgety             Was thrown over for the petty Claims of parish politicians I`m inclined to raze for gore.             I`d rejoice if someone dug a             Deep, wide grave at Mugga Mugga And interred all Canberranters, minus service, sob or stone -             All nefarious State-Frighters!             Yassinine old nation-blighters! Nay; I`d lug a Mugga-fighter there and plant him on my own!
