Quite clearly you are a fool. The Boxing Kangaroos attended 53 events during the Olympic Games. Just because you didnt happen to be at the same event as us doesnt mean we werent there. The Olympic Games is a large spectacle!!!! If you had attended the Homebush Bay Brewery on any night you would have seen us singing and consuming a lot of alcohol. Obviously you didnt get in. I'm not surprised.

As for you not understanding our songs- who cares. If you come over again let us know and we'll write something more to your tastes. What about something like " Barmy Army, Barmy Army" repeated one thousand times over. Is that in your range?

We thought the song "God Save the queen" was shithouse so we rewrote it. I have enclosed it for your pleasure, maybe you could talk to the right people and get it changed for us.

"God Save the queen"

This tale of vast desires
Their quest that so inspires
This brave nation
Dadadada
Striving courageously
Fighting Defiantly
So passionately proud to be
An AUSTRALIAN!!!

Ha Ha.
