Paul Keating:
Since we've been together, baby, what a ride we've had
A rollercoaster j-curve through the good times and the bad
And maybe you got the blues
But if you have to choose
Then choose me
John Howard:
You gave him your devotion and he treated you so cruel
You took him to the top and now he takes you for a fool
Who don't you break it up?
It's time to shake it up
And choose me.
Dislocation, deprivation, well it's more than you should stand
Keating:
Working Nation transformation needs a sure and steady hand
It gets harder, but we'll be smarter, so we've got to push on through
Howard:
You don't need it! Why believe it? What's your country done for you?
I'll pick you pretty flowers, babe, fresh-cut roses right to your door
Keating:
Am I the only one to whom that promise sounds non-core?
Howard:
No, I always tell the truth
Keating:
I think we need some proof
Keating and Howard:
So choose me.
Keating:
We had trouble, burst our bubble, but recovery is here
Howard:
I don't trust it, he'll just bust it, he's the king of brick veneer
Keating:
Honest Johnny, later on, we gonna see a GST?
Howard:
No I swear it, I declare it, that will never ever be!
Keating:
So tell me truly, people, is it him or is it me?
Howard:
Take a lolly, baby, think it over carefully
Keating and Howard:
'Cos now it's up to you
Whatever you want to do...
But choose me
Choose me
Choose me
Howard:
I'll give you all a million dollars each!
Keating and Band:
Choose me
Howard:
If you only vote for me
Keating and Band:
Choose me
Howard:
I'll buy you a beautiful house on Bondi Beach!
Keating and Band:
Choose me
Howard:
All you gotta do is choose me
Keating and Band:
Choose me
Howard:
I'll take away all the misery! All the pain!
Keating and Band:
Choose me
Howard:
I'll make your lives full of happiness forever and ever!
Keating and Band:
Choose me
Howard:
People, all you have to do is vote for me
Keating and Band:
Choose me
Howard:
I can make all the pain go away!
Keating and Howard:
Choose me.
