Louie the Fly

I found this guy today just sitting there on my lemon tree...he brought back to mind an advertising campaign from the 1960's for the Australian product Mortein fly-spray...

Louie the Fly, I'm Louie the fly
straight from rubbish tip to you.
Spreading disease with the greatest of ease,
straight from rubbish tip to you.
I’m bad and mean and mighty unclean,
afraid of no-one but the man with the can of Mortein.
Hate that word Mortein...
brrrrzingggg
One spray & Louie the Fly,
apple of his old mothers eye,
was Louie, poor dead Louie,
Louie the fly, a victim of Mortein...Mortein

Well done... for the photo and also for bringing the words to Louie the fly to the project, hard to believe that the same man that wrote this went on to write books like the Power of One

@frameit thanks Tracy it took a fair bit of Googling to find the lyrics though...
It is amazing that the same person churned out both of these things. Talk about true talent!!!
