Buy a litre of Fabulon
Dare we spray down
In the scorched trail
of a Sunbeam iron
Paint your face with Revlon
To hide your frown,
In the blue-gloam glare
Of your Rank television.
Carry it away from Myers now
Requiring of us a loan,
How can we live without these things
in Templestowe?
Buy an electric toothbrush for your mouth,
Roche medication for your heart,
You'll be comfortable locked up tight
In your sauna.
Let the Third World rabble on
If dishy-washer breaks down,
An eyeful of Visine,
A floral tissue to cry on.
In the valley of silicon,
Where we may drown,
And there we leapt
Into blind oblivion.
Carry it away from Tandy's now,
A computer of your own.
How can we live without a VDU
And a life programme.
A bottle of Listerine for your mouth,
A pair of Adidas for your heart,
You'll be comfortable locked up tight
In your wardrobe.
Buy a litre of Fabulon,
Dare we spray down,
In the scorched trail
of a Sunbeam iron.
