Heaven Or Die
02:04
|
|||
This is Fish Daddy
I'd like to send a message
To all of you out there
Hard pressed
Undergoing challenges
Going the hard way
I've come with a message
Here it is
I am Fish Daddy
My father left me for dead
But I am a soldier, I will carry on
And it's well past time I rise
Rise, in your way
You're better off going today
It's heaven or die my friend
And it seems like this is the end
For Fish Daddy

Mount Glasgow
01:41
|
|||
The climb
Is a little hard for a fish
But the venture to true friendship is
Rewarding
Ooh
I climbed Mount Glasgow
Ooh
You know I did
Birthday presents, they're all mine
Friendly advice, all of the time
Reciprocation? Not a chance
I climbed up Mount Glasgow
Took me 6 months and 7 days
I climbed up Mount Glasgow
Was it worth it? Don't ask me mate!
It's hard
But boy is there a payoff
Sink more, suck more, drink more piss
On your day off
Ooh
I climbed Mount Glasgow
Ooh
You know I did

Steph
02:25
|

I was on the motorway, with my cousin Steph
She was cruising, in preparation for her driving test
For years I had dreamt and longed for her kiss
I decided to make a move, as we approached the Nepean river bridge
So in for a kiss I leant
And into the river we went
And now I'm drowning in her love
As well as in the waters of Penrith Rowers Club
My spirit swam to the astral plane
Steph got left behind in a world of pain
Had to go it alone, into the new world
My memories flew, my conscience whirled
A splattered canvas of thoughts and dreams
From a life once lived, more than it seemed
And now I'm flying up above
Soaring over Penrith Rowers Club

Sunk
01:40
|
|||
You sunky my ship
Now I have to sweem
Back home to my land
My mansion oh so grand
Dig up my sand
And bury myself like ham
Sand get in my eye
I'm no ordinary
I can fight the sky
I can fight the sea
Buy my greatest enemy
That enemy is me
Time to fight myself
I've been putting it off for far too long
I've sunk my own shops
I've burnt down me bridge
And I tried to blame you
I am sorry friend

The Time of Our Lives
01:51
|
|||
It was the time of our lives
Those were good old days
But fellas, it's time
For us all to hit the hay
Hey
Let's dream it
All over again
Let's go for another round
We're youngsters once more
Whatcha waitin for?
Now it's time, yes it's time
To hit the town
Breakin on the dance floor
Crack open a couple of eggs
Groovin forever more
Even with two left legs
Dance away your wisdom
Dance away your years
Dance away your children
Dance away your fears

The Crown
01:16
|
|||
Break your bum
Ya fell down
Pick yourself up
You're in Bumtown now
The blankets are off
No turning back now!
I'm a musician
You know what I am
I would do something else
But I don't think I can
I got zero credentials
You can take a bloody look
Got none of the essentials
Yo I can't even cook
But I can rock a mic
Like a King wears a crown
And the crown, THE CROWN
I'll take it to town
And then pretend I'm the King when no one else is around
Cause if they saw me doing that
Then they'd call me a CLOWN
They never treat me as their equal
They mock me, and I'm full of resentment for that
All I want is a loving and adoring community who is just wild about fish daddy!
I suppose I should find a scene somewhere else.

Potatoes and Gravy
02:29
|

Hey good lookin
Whatcha got cookin
Are you free at all this week
Do you mind if I book in?
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
I took a man out once on a date
It was a moment of self discovery for me and my mate
We decided that we were good friends
But I'm not into guys, that's just not how we relate
So I'm on the prowl for a lady
Who makes potatoes and gravy
Because that's my favourite snack, but I can't make it myself
Hey good lookin
Whatcha got cookin
Are you free at all this week
Do you mind if I book in?
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
I can cook meals that are good for your health if you like
I'm a modern man! We can help each other out
Equal responsibility, baby you feeling me?
I'm feeling you and I love that chicken stew
Let's make a date, don't hesitate
Are we eating out or eating in?
What are we eating?
Must we begin?
What's for din dins?
Hey good lookin
Whatcha got cookin
Are you free at all this week
Do you mind if I book in?
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
I love you
This is our world, our life
Nothing sexual

Figgy figgy
Suck a ciggy
The son of Biggie
It was all because of little piggy
I've climbed so far
I can't turn back now
I would look like a coward in your eyes
Ooby dooby
Do the scooby
Watch a movie
It was all the fault of Tom Cruisey
I've reached the summit
You know that I love it
Yes you know I can't help my ways
The piggy in my heart is you
Tighty whiteys
Mighty mighty
Fly a kitey
It was all because of Kent Brighty
What a great view
I wish it was of you
I wish you were here to see this sun
Don't be a sooky
Dish me up cooky
Take a looky
It was all because of Mickey Mooky
I tumble down
So that I'll be around
I'll come straight down to you for a kiss
The piggy in my heart is you

Life was shit but now it's good
Been runnin through the woods
Findin myself with no luck
Hockey puck
All is well in my little shop of horrors
Fishies
Runnin through the woods
Fishies
Delivering frozen goods
I'm a sucker for kickin off breakfast
Tell me when the microwave's off
Life ain't bad, life is nice
Life gets me to sleep at night
One day I will sleep with no dreams
But that's not now, so I rock up on the scene
Cobbahs on the left, cobbahs on the right
Give em a shake em up tonight
Life ain't bad, life is nice
Was gonna say it once
But I had to say it twice
Fishies
Runnin through the woods
Fishies
Delivering frozen goods
I'm a sucker for kickin off breakfast
Tell me when the microwave's off
Duck duck goose

Aw mate, feeling crook as a chook
Don't you stress it
We're gonna get you to the doctor's and suppress it
You're on a roll, little mister
Don't worry, soul sister
All will be fine in the end
Don't let it drag you down
It's heaven or die and you're on your way to heaventown
No more sickness for you
Fish Daddy
I'll never get better
Nothing can cure this
It's hopeless
Nah
No Panadol
No Nurofen
Have you had your Inner Health Plus today?
No, sir!
Don't you worry
Your pretty little head about it
We'll get ya to a professional
Don't for a second doubt it
Get your flappy fins happy, get your magic happening!
You'll feel good as new
Mr. Fishy Daddy
What's wrong with you?
Can you tell me?
Any symptoms?
Any soreness in the throat?
(Yeah)
Does it float your boat?
(No)
I'd say it doesn't
Being sick is not nice
For any of us
(Yeah, I don't like getting sick either, fuck)
Any of us??
NOOOO
*Coughing and sputtering*
Yeah, I'm feeling a bit rough in my throat
But now I've gotta blow my nose
Here we go!
Take it away Jimbo!

Eddy: Yeah Rednut, they reckon- they reckon Rednut Coveney... They reckon Rednut won th' ugliest man competition three times, but no one was game enough to give 'im the prize. He was ugly... true!
Spider: Rednut Coveney was a big pissweak arsehole. Now Ross Coveney, was the toughest man to ever walk on two boots. Uh, ya couldn't kill 'im, ya couldn't poison 'im, y'know... He was just a tough bastard. 'Im and Hancock from Longreach, y'know, they could outrun 22 bullets. My god, I was gonna send to America n' get a sharpshooter.

I am Tom Glasgow
My brother left me for dead
But I am a soldier I will carry on
And it's well past time I rise
Rise in my way
I'm better off going today
It's Heaven or Die my friend
And it seems like this is the end
For Tom Glasgow
