The Games 2018
The games came and the games went
A city celebrated and a fortune spent
Athletes came united with a plan
Some of them swam while others ran
The Prince was here with his Camilla
His speech for mumsy a nice time filla
He declared the games officially open
For a good time we all were hopin
The celebration was pretty good
All those guests in our own hood
The local Kombumerri were excited
To be recognised and formally invited
The friendly games mate with mate
Helping each other to pass the gate
Recognizing first with a medal of gold
Every athlete given a gift to hold
Equal placing for the Para-athletic team
The realization of a uniting dream
Men and women treated as equal
Birmingham faces a tough sequel
The final ceremony looked great live
On TV it came across as a dive
No athletes at all were included
Bloody Beatie should be excluded
