Anyone remember how the song ends?
I think it was something like
pleasing you's the job I'm given pleasing you makes life worth living
- but that's as far as I can get ... —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 144.132.28.166 (talk • contribs) .
It went like this:
pleasing you's the job I'm given pleasing you makes life worth living When we're wrong we'll be forgiven As we roll along Together we belong

WHATEVER happened to Zig, the disgraced half of the famous Melbourne clowns? Doug McKenzie, the better half, turned up his curly toes two years ago but Diary has not heard a word about Zig, Jack Perry, until now, although we're none the wiser if he's still with us. Diary had a call from South Melbourne: the Salvos store in Clarendon Street has been selling his stuff. Kitchen chairs, a bedroom dresser with mirror, two bedside cabinets, all optimistically marked: "heritage" and "Once belonged to Zig the Clown".
The lady at the counter said she had never heard of Zig and Zag but the "men who collected it said that was where it came from".
You remember the tragic saga: after four decades of frolicking with the kids, starring in Moomba and on ankle-biter television, Zig and Zag were finally made Moomba monarchs in 1999 but the reign was over before it began. Suddenly it was revealed that, years before, Zig had pleaded guilty to child molestation and he (and, hence, hapless Zag) was dethroned. Zig and Zag never spoke to each other again. If still alive, Zig would be 89 now.
