Lyrics :

Do you remember the day that if you said that you were gay
It meant with joy that you could sing and shout
A fairy was enchanting and dressing up and camping
Was something you did with the scouts
That care free age when an urgent case of aids
Was powdered milk we sent to the Sahara
A fruit was something nice to eat a poof was something for your feet
And a queen was an old tart in a tiara

Chorus:
Ah look what we've done to the old mother tongue
It's a crime the way we've misused it
It's been totally tis woggled, crumb and blonged and golly woggled
And we've strangled, mangled frangled and abused it

Ah those far off times when a bong meant a chime
And a buzz was a noise insecticidal
And joint was something between bones and getting really stoned
Only happened to bad people in the Bible
When if you had a bad trip it meant you fell and broke your hip
Cold turkey just meant Christmas at Aunt Dottie's
Coke was something that you burned; a smack was something that you earned
From your mumzie wumzie when you had been naughty

Chorus

The years have gone I'm afraid when only eggs got laid
And only the rhinoceros got horny
Only kangaroos jumped and only camels humped
Getting stuffed meant a little taxidermy
Swing was for trapezes and Tarzan's chimpanzees
Tossing off was something Scotland did with cabers
Now it means something quite obscene
And heavy ugly scene is any movie starring Arnold Schwarzenegger

Chorus

Lyrics

They sailed from port one morning the weather it was fair
A gentle breeze it pushed them and no one gave a care
They sang and danced and laughed that night and opened up a keg
They're out to catch the monster whale that took the captain's leg

The Captain said, "A piece of gold for him who sees me whale
So bend your backs and row me boys I know that we won't fail!"

So bend your backs and row me lads and take me to me whale
Tonight we'll sing and dance and tomorrow night we'll sail
We'll sail into the harbour no prouder man there'll be
We'll show them all we captured the monster from the sea

They spied the whale one morning the weather it was fair
The men were white as ghosts, the Captain didn't care
"I'll take this whale meself" he cried "the weak can stay behind
The strong can share my glory and tonight they'll share my wine"

The whale it came so close it was bigger than the sky
They lowered down the longboat and they heard the captain cry

Bend your backs and row me lads and take me to me whale...

The whale it came so close it almost tipped the boat
The captain took his harpoon and rammed it down it's throat
The whale it gave a mournful cry and lifted it's great tail
And brought it down a crashing on their small boat like a gale

Now 100 years have passed since the Captain and his men
Went down to spend eternity in Davy Jones' den
The whale it goes on living but inside it bears a scar
And if you're ever near that place a voice calls from afar...

Botany Bay - Australian folk mp3 song free dowload

Botany audio songs free download | Botay bay Australian folk song mp3 music free download | Botany Bay - Australian folk songs wity lyrics and video

1. [G]Come and listen for a moment, lads,
And hear me tell my [C]tale.
How [G]across the sea from England
I [C]was condemned to [G]sail.

Now the [G]jury found me guilty,
Then says the judge, says [C]he,
Oh for [G]life Jim Jones I'm [D]sending you
[C]Across the stormy [G]sea.

But [C]take a tip before you ship
To [G]join the iron gang.
Don't [C]get too gay in Botany Bay,
Or [G]else you'll surely [D]hang.

Or [G]else you'll surely hang," says he.
And after that, Jim [C]Jones,
It's [G]high above on the [D]gallows tree
The [C]crows will pick your [G]bones

2. And our ship was high upon the sea
Then pirates came along,
But the soldiers on our convict ship
Were full five hundred strong.

For they opened fire and somehow drove
That pirate ship away.
But I'd rather have joined that pirate ship
Than gone to Botany Bay.

With the storms ragin' round us,
And the winds a-blowin' gale,
I'd rather have drowned in misery
Than gone to New South Wales.

There's no time for mischief there, they say
Remember that says they
Oh they'll flog the poaching out of you
down there in Botany Bay

3. Now it's day and night and the irons clang,
And like poor galley slaves
We toil and toil, and when we die
Must fill dishonored graves,

And it's by and by I'll slip my chains,
Well, into the bush I'll go
And I'll join the bravest rankers there,
Jack Donohue and co.

And some dark night, when everything
Is silent in the town
I'll shoot those tyrants one and all,
I'll gun the flogger down.

Oh, I'll give the land a little shock,
Remember what I say,
And they'll yet regret they've sent Jim Jones
In chains to Botany Bay.
