So I was watching Chaser's and I hear the song below...
The Eulogy Song
Steve Irwin lived in Khaki, a cartoon kamikaze, he taunted crocs and tots so frequently. Brocky was some revhead who pumped the air with lead, so anti green he drove into a tree. But all that was forgotten once they took thier final breath, yes even tools turn into top blokes after death.
John Lennon chose the hippie life he chose some nutbag for a wif, his songs were never quite as good as Paul's. Jeff Buckley fooled all lovers, just one album, mostly covers, with more wailing than Japan does off our shores. But all that was forgotten once he took his final breath, yes even wankers turn into top blokes after death.
Princess Di was just a slut for sex, when they looked in the car, a wreck, her dress was wet with Arab's semen stains. Stan Zemanek was a racist jock a fatso and a phobic cock, his views were more malignant than his brain. But all that was forgotten wehn he took his final breath yes even arseholes turn into top blokes after death.
It's not how they lived that counts, but how we rewrite the book, when it comes to truth, it;s best to use restraint, it pays to throw away the facts and have a rose coloured look, when he dies Martin Bryant will look a saint.
Don Bradmon was a total Bastard, grumpy, greedy, a tight-arse who couldn't even score one run the last time he played. Kerry Packer was a brothel Chief, a tax fraud and a kidney thief, and procreating Jamie was the worst mistake he made. But all that was forgotten once he took his final breath yes, even fuckers turn into top blokes after death.
Remember all will be forgotten once we tale our final breath, yes even pervert mother fuckers, even rampant child abusers, even local Baghdad looters, even baby bunny rooters, even reckless drunken drivers, even violent poffter bashers, even public penis flashers, even rotting corpse molesters, even human piss ingesters, even tiny kitten dickers, even anal finger lickers, even Anna 'bloody' Coren, yes, even she will be a top bloke after death.
Care of the Chaser's war on everything, written by Chris Taylor.
Next day uproar, why? They only spoke the truth, sure they insulted a couple of people but he majority of them deserved it. If you don't like it turn of the TV, it's called freedom of speech and no one is forcing you to watch it anyway.
My father works for Channel 7 and he admits that they in particular have fun at over-hyping the 'outrage' caused by the Chasers. Apparently the disgust toward the song itself was far less intense than they made it out to me.
And they didn't mention that Anna Coren was referenced, in any of their stories
It's the war on EVERYTHING so I guess they have the choice to do something like this, and it's certainly dominating the timeslot. The APEC thing only made them more popular and even though government higher-ups found that disgusting in itself, the majority of the population had a laugh at the sheer fact that they did such a thing.
So yeah, I can't see them getting pulled off TV for this, but I suppose it was bound to turn a few heads. Let's just see what they have to say next week. I personally laughed at some of the things they said, although I knew that not everyone would be happy. But if they don't take the risk, who will?

I found it funny, but it's poking at a sensitive issue so they're bound to get some flame back. Was watching ABC again tonight: Errol Flynn, flamboyant womanizer is life, swashbuckling hero in death. There's a certain amount of truth in what the song says... and apparently it was a watered down version.
