lyrics

ERA SHACKS

enjoy it while you can
we gotta fight to keep it
where we spent the night
the beach, the morning light
us shackies got it straight
no phones here today
a hero fridge for beer
our little era shacks
down the surf club
nippers good grub
we gotta with to keep it


DAVE AND MARY

Today he called her landline
sister Mary took the call
"Hello this is Dave.
could I speak to Mary Please?"
"No she's not here.
I am going to ask her to call you.
What is your number please?"
Oh .. Mary did you? did you? why did you take my heart?
You can't lose.
My god she's huge!
A glass of red.
4 whole pizzas. Then to bed.

LAST WOMAN STANDING

Some kind of day this has been.
Last man standing.
Last woman playing.
No competition but nowhere to play.
New threads for today's Tiktok.
Some kind of day this has been.

PERFECT

Takes one to know one.
I'm fallin' for you and you and you.
9 clicks to go for me and you.
You're quota is done.
Some food for mum.
Straight romance.
It's almost free digitally for you in me.
Hear the cooks in your yard.
You're so far.
Soothe my heart.

RAIL MARY

Up from Mciver's Lady baths.
North of Coogee . Lady of the Fence Post sits.
Our Rail Mary.
Hail to Rail Mary.
Could it be true?
Some people wept others they sang.
Most people prayed there.


They kissed a fence post.
Hail to Rail mary.
Could it be true ?

FLOATIN

Are we floatin?
floatin on the green
I hang on to the screen
you see a ship its' all aglow it knows it knows
Flyin to the other side.
A groovy little candle ride.
you see a ship it's all a glow it knows it knows
you see were floatin
flootin floating
my hearts exploding
groovin growin
you see were floating
flootin floating
sit down sit down go down go down
a new page, a new teen
i hang on to the screen
you ship a ship its all aglow it knows it knows
scrollin to the other side
a groovy little tablet ride
you see a ship it's all a glow it knows it knows

LURLINE 1925

Today we going to head to Lurline
We gonna take the train from Strathfield
Gonna carve my channel
Free power for all
They going to know my name Percy Bates
If it takes 10 years
I don't really mind at all
Free Power.
I think I see cockatoos.
Lurline Bay is for you.
