Anyone familiar with the antipodean expression “rabbit-basher”? It means one who is flashy against weak opposition. Give the poor lady a break.

I heard that Der Dink was a car mechanic before he decided to inflict his “music” on an unsuspecting public.  
Please re-grease me  
Change my oil  
Check my spark plugs  
And my coil

I am burnig oil again  
And I am running  
Rough as well  
To leave me this way  
Would be a sin  
So please tune me  
Or I will stall again
