Brownie Points
Tex Beaumont & the Dirty Hearts
(with help from Caravan Ray and the Right Honourable Member for Bennelong, Prime Minister of Australia, John W Howard MP)
A love between men is a beautiful thing, the bond that they share is truly unbreakable
Forged in adversity, bound by fraternity
A mate is a mate till the end
On the fields of sport or the field of battle
We sweat and we bleed and we fight all as one
And when last whistle blows, we embrace and together share an icy cold beer and a steaming hot tub
So all charge your glasses, grab the bloke beside you and sing:
La la la la la la la la la
Then Brownie points at the bloke over there
tight pink shirt and gel in his har
Something about that bloke just ain't right
Looks like the lads will have fun tonight
Macca skulls his beer and he says "Let's go!"
Davo does the same and he says "Righto"
Me and Boofhead and Bluey and Swill
are all chocked up on angry pills
There's no better way to spend a night
then sucking piss, and starting a fight
Oi oi
We don't like your type around here
Oi oi
You look like some fucking queer mate
Oi oi
Australia's sons come let us rejoice
For we are so young and free, yes we are so lucky
the blood of the convict, the sweat of the immigrant have made the greatest nation on Earth
From the fields of Anzac to the fields in drought
It'a all about helping a bloke when he's down
In this land of equality, free from class heirachy, there's a "fair go" for all
So all charge your glasses
to the green and the gold and the true blue
La la la la la la la la la
Then Brownie points at them two down the street
She's covered in veils from her head to her feet
He got a prayer mat under his arm
Time for some grevious bodily harm!
Macca skulls his beer and he says "Let's go!"
Davo does the same and he says "Righto"
Me and Boofhead and Bluey and Swill
are all chocked up on angry pills
There's no better way to spend a night
then sucking piss, and starting a fight
Oi oi
Why don't you go back where you came from, mate
Oi oi
We don't wan't no refugees around here
Oi oi
Grab him round the head
Punch him in the guts
Knock him to the ground
Kick him in the nuts
Grab him round the head
Punch him in the guts
Knock him to the ground
Kick him in the nuts
Grab him round the head
Punch him in the guts
Knock him to the ground
Kick him in the nuts
Grab him round the head
Punch him in the guts
Knock him to the ground
Kick him in the nuts
John Howard: I do not accept there is underlying racism in this country. I have always taken a more optimistic view of the character of the Australian people
some redneck on talkback radio: They come here, and we just get run over by Lebanese and wogs and shit. It's not cool...
(and some background reading, and more just in case this is all a bit mystifying)
