PM: I'll Do Anything To Govern, But I Won't Do Jack

REPORTER:

Prime Minister, why do you continually refuse to be interviewed by Jack Tame on ‘Q and A’?

PM:

What I’m saying to you is what I’ve continued to say to you, which is consistent with the advice that I have received from Meatloaf.

REPORTER:

Pardon? Did you say advice from Meatloaf?

PM:

That’s correct.

REPORTER:

What does Meatloaf have to do with it? Wait, what are you doing with that microphone?

PM:

Some days the words come easy

Some days the words come hard

Some days they don’t come at all

And these are the days you need a friend

Sometimes it’s Heather D-P

Sometimes it’s Morning Mike

Some days you’re less crystal-clear

And need some help to make it to the end

Maybe I’m crazy, but it’s crazy and it’s true

I know they can save me, more than ‘Q and A’ can do

As long as the corner’s turning

As long as the LNG’s burning

As long as the KPIs are coming true

You’d better believe it

I would do anything to govern

I know it’s true and that’s a fact

I would do anything to govern

And there’ll never be no turning back

But I’ll never do it better than I do it on a Newstalk show, oh no

And I will do anything to govern

I will do anything to govern

I will do anything to govern

But I won’t do Jack

I will do anything to govern

I will do anything to govern

I will do anything to govern

But I won’t do Jack

No I won’t do Jack

REPORTER:

Well, er, thanks.

PM:

I can’t make it any clearer than that.
