THE SPIRIT OF SYDNEY

------------------------

GHOST! 

What a city

STRUTH! 

It has class

A spectre SUBLIME

JEEZ!

It echoes it's past- THE ROCKS and THE COATHANGER

THE HARBOUR, THE PARKS.

And then there's THE RESTAURANTS, THE CAFES and PUBS

THE HOTELS, THE MOTELS and all THE GREAT CLUBS

Icould go on and on about all thats on offer

But instead of that choosing I, d prefer to proffer 

It's a privilege to be part of the beauty of this

A real love affair-I throw her a kiss

She,s so sexy - so suave, so cool, so bloody right! 

She proudly admits that she stays up all night

Her energy,s endless. She's a stayer with might!

FAIR GO!

I shout out -I, m BUGGERED! It's been outasight!

SHE! SHE! SHE!

IT'S ALL ABOUT HER!

So bright and so sunny       

Her nickname is CHER....!

She's gay; she's bi-sexual; she's a trannie- a queer!

She ain't into judgement

She calls us lot,'DEAR'

She's not xenophobic-she embraces the world

She's learned foreign language-not bad for a girl!

BONDI BEACH is her haunt although it's said she's been seen

At CLOVELLY, MAROUBRA and MANLY,but at COOGEE, she's QUEEN!

Her skirt is THE HARBOUR, her jacket-THE BRIDGE

She's polices the traffic-yeah! It's all ridgey didge!

I can't say no more-I don't have the time

CRIKEY!

I, m on her case-right down the line

We meet on street corners or, the HILTON after nine

Our relationship,s near perfect and she feels that way too

Her name? Yeah it's SYDNEY-'NOT WENDY SUE'!

At least that's just what she told me when we met at the ZOO!

Yesterday!

FAIR DINKUM!!!
