~~~ Social or Anti-Social Club ~~~

The hall at Bindawalla
Is so very sad today,
'Cos, nobody seems to go there
For all it's games to play.

We only just arrived here
Maybe, five, six weeks ago,
And we visit it quite often
And there's nothing on the go.

And we hear there is a Social Club
To keep that hall alive,
But we've never seen much happening
No matter how they strive.

Maybe it needs new members
With some, "Com'on get up and go"
To organise a dance or two
Or a good old picture show.

But sadly, you must become a member
And be accepted to this club,
Or you have to play there by yourself
Then it's you their gunna' snub.

You'd think that when we got here
We'd be, " Welcomed with open arms"
Not ignored and castigated,
Afraid we'd do them harm.

So lets' get that new hall jumping
With some dances and with games,
So the folks at "Bindawalla"
Will come to life again.

Or lets build a mausoleum
For those weak in mind and frame
And shut down that hall completely
To die silently in shame.

~~~ My Missing Piece of Paper Alert ~~~

I've lost me piece of paper
You know, that bit that I stuck here!
I came to see if it was safe
But now it's diss-appeared.

I wonder who removed it
Was it them or was it you?
'Cos I hope that piece of paper
Has not cause a blue.

That paper was my property
It was close unto my heart,
I loved it 'Oh' so dearly
And I never thought we'd part.

Now! Some thief has gone and stole it
And probably caused it pain,
So I will have to put another up
To remind you all again.

That, that piece of missing paper
Belongs to only me,
And I'd like that one who stole it
To return it quick-e-lee.

'Cos if it's not returned with haste
I most certainly will cry,
And that one who stole and damaged it
Should go to hell and fry.

~~~ Another Piece of My Paper is Missing ~~~

I've lost another piece of paper
Again I bloody fear
You know, that bit that I,
Stuck bloody well up here!

And now it's gone, no longer safe,
It was hangin' pinned on here
Now some silly sausage stole it
'Cos it's diss-a-bloody-peared.

It's the second bit that's vanished,
In a week or maybe more,
And I don't know why it's missing,
It really has me floored,

But! I know who flamin' took it
And I know what I should do
'Cos I know that piece of paper
Is gunna' get 'em in the poo.

That paper is my property,
Those words were from me heart,
And I wrote them with b-revity
And I never thought we'd part.

Now! Some silly dill has stole 'em
And probably flushed 'em down the drain,
So I will have to put this other up
To remind you all again.

That, those bits of missing paper
They belong to only me,
And I'd like that dill who stole 'em,
To return them quick-e-lee.

And if they're not returned with haste,
I will do my best you see,
To catch that dill and skin their hide,
Then nail it to a tree.

~~~ Our Application to Join ~~~

We got this application
To join the Social Club today,
So, we filled it out and signed it
In a com-ple-menty way.

But the one that gave it to us
Just dropped it here a fled,
She never stopped to have a chat
Not a word was even said.

She just stuck it in our letterbox
And she knew that we was here,
And she could have had a cuppa' tea
Or a nice cold glass of beer.

Our car was in the driveway
And our door was open wide,
So we waited with excitement
To invite her here inside.

But sadly she just bolted
She really just shot through.
Now that, our application has been filled out
Who do we send it to?

~~~ "Pick up that Ball and Ball" ~~~

The saddest place I've ever been
Is to Bindawalla hall,
Somebody comes and shuts it up,
"Pick up that ball and ball"

At 9pm it's time to go
There's no time left for fun,
So! "Pick up that bat and ball" you's folk
it's time for you to run.

Get out'a here and leave this place
It's time you were in bed,
So! "Pick up that bat and ball" they yell.
Struth! We might as well be dead!!!!!

It's like we're only five or six
And we must do what we're told
"Pick up that bat and ball" they scream
and get out in the cold.

9pm! Gee-bloody-wizz,
I can't believe my ears,
"Pick up that bat and ball" I'm told
and get out of bloody here.

The oddest part about this tale,
Is if you want to have some fun,
Make sure "That bat and balls picked up"
'Cos, at 9pm you run.

~~~ The Grass At Bindawalla Grows ~~~

The grass at Bindawalla
Is growing pretty quick,
And if it isn't mowed real soon
The stuff will be too thick.

The day that we came lookin'
For a shack here in this park,
Nancy told us as we walked
That our life would be a lark.

We'd never have to mow again
Or whipper snip as well,
'Cos if we bought a shack in here
Our mowers we could sell.

Your lawn gets mowed lest twice a month
In the winter, only once you see,
'Cos the cost of mowing comes straight out
As part, of your rental fee.

It's built into the rent she said
So it costs no more at all,
And, if you need to cut your lawn much more
There's a mower at your call.

So we brought a shack and moved right in
And we've been here eight weeks now,
It's been cut, just once not any more
No matter how we scrape and bow.

It seems that Nancy told us lies
'Cos Peter tells us it's not true,
And he'll cut the grass when he likes
And there is nothing we can do.

So we sit and wait here patiently
For that lawn, mowing man to come,
And we watch the grass grow, as it likes
And twiddle both our thumbs.

~~~ To The Bindawalla Social Club ~~~

The Bindawalla Social Club
Are a mob of flamin' sheep,
We tried to join but were refused
So their social club they'll keep.

We filled the application out
And stuck it just up here,
And they took the application off
And refused with flamin' fear.

And there is not a flamin' member
Who's got the guts to say,
Why, they knocked our application back
And threw the thing away.

So, we'll just treat them all with pity
And forgive them as we can,
For their weakness and the stupidness
Of every women, boy and man.

And they've lost the plot completely
With their fear and their greed.
To keep their club exclusive
'Cos, we are the last thing that they need.

Our ideas are too modern
We are progressive and we're smart,
And they are too old and lazy
And they don't know where to start.

So we have this flamin' message "JIM",
To you, and all your mates who have no class,
You can stick your lousy social club
Fair up your flamin' ARSE.

~~~ We Went to Have a Barby the Other Flamin' Day ~~~

We went to have a barby the other flamin' day,
We packed our chops and packed our snags and went upon our way.
We filled our esky full of grub an' wine an' coke an' beer,
And the day was such a bonzer one, full of sun an' fun an' cheer.

But! When we flamin' got there, to the barby, it was locked up tight,
I looked at Kerry, shook me head an' said, "This can't be flamin' right".
'Cos, Nancy she had told us of the jolly, jolly news,
That there was a barby here on site for every one to use.

But sadly she's mistaken, so we abandoned this 'ere mission
'Cos, we cannot use the bar-b-que, with out old Jims permission.
Lockin' up a barby, what a load of tommy rot,
Does Jim, think we all are criminals, and we're gunna' pinch the flamin' lot?

You can walk along the waterfront and in the parks most everywhere,
There are bar-b-que's all unlocked that you can use without a care.
This is an over 50's village, so use ya' flamin' head,
It's not a place to wait and die, or for the dying and the dead.

For it's a terrible injustice and it flamin' bloody stinks
That we are branded all as crooks, or is that what, the Social Club just thinks.
The management is just as bad to let him lock that barby up,
And to lock the hall at nine pm, now that's pretty flamin' rough.

So leave that flamin' barby open, for every body to enjoy,
Don't lock it up and let it rust like a lost dis-guarded toy.
And let the games all finish before you lock the flamin' hall,
Before this place just ends up goin', to the flamin' wall.

So I'll tell ya' straight me china plate, we do this with elation,
"To the Bindawalla Social Club, please accept our resignation.
Yes that's our name "O'Brien & Duffy" the ones you seem to fear,
'Cos, it's not flamin' hard to tell, you do not want us here".

But! We are not going no-where, we're here to flamin' stay,
And it doesn't matter what you do or what you flamin' say.
We can be your worst'est nightmare, the type, that haunts you every day,
Or we can be your best'est friends, and joined you in the games you play".
