ANZAC Day
Apr 24^th, 2019 at 11:14am

Maybe it’s because of our Convict Streak
We wanna fight everyone we meet
Anzac Day is our day of the year
We march our march, we drink our beer

We don’t like Slopes, we don’t like Yanks
I’d personally like to blow up
every Commie tank
We’re only few but we fought in ‘Nam
Packed our guns alongside Uncle Sam
Ask any of us, it were no sin
The only crime was that we didn’t win

(chorus)
And … The Poms are weak as piss
The French are queer
The Germans are wankers,
but they make good beer
Don’t criticise what you don’t understand
If you think I’m talking poo
you don’t belong in this land

I’m Australian, we all are
We watch the telly and we drive our car
But don’t you ever SAY WE’RE WEAK
Or you’ll learn all about our Convict Streak

The world began with Adam and Eve
But Australia started at Gallipolli
Our fathers put the Desert into Desert Rats
Their uncles slipped the boot in,
up in Lambing Flats

Don’t criticise what you don’t understand
It’s not that we’re behind the times,
we’re in a different land
We might be slobs but WE’RE NOT WEAK
Maybe it’s because of our Convict Streak

(chorus)

I’m Australian, so are you
It doesn’t matter if you’re Ding or Jew
Just remember, while you’re here
You march our march and you drink our beer

Lyrics © Dave Warner

* Just getting in a day early. Wink

He used to live across the road from my grandmother, here in Perth (Bicton), and I used to hear his band rehearsing on the weekends when we'd visit. Saw him play live many times (at the Herdsman Hotel, here in Perth) - Johnny Leopard on guitar was great.

I believe Dave Warner hails from West Australia? He was a bit of a trail-blazer in terms of Australian satirical pop music.

Yes, he's from Perth.

He's known as 'The Boy from Bicton'.

As I said earlier, when I was a kid I used to listen to him rehearse in his mother's garage.

Sorry, I missed your post about that history.

I like Suburban Boy and Mug's Game as well as Convict Streak. Cool

The grubberment hates the fact that more and more AUSTRALIANS are embracing Anzac day.

They are frightened that AUSTRALIANS may start to see the problems that out of control multiculturalism creates and will start forcing the deadbeats to start restricting the intake of worthless parasites.

This in turn woukd make them look bad I. The eyes of the United muzzo Nations and then they woukd have to prostrate themselves on the alter of political correctness yet again.

Anzac day thanks those who fought and died for our country

What woukd they think if they were alive today as saw the mess the grubberment has made of their sacrifice?

Methinks they would turn their guns on the deadbeat politicians.
