Lyrics
Capture, if you will, a tropic isle
The palm trees wafting gently in the breeze
(Waft, waft)
It's forty degrees Celsius in the shade
(Christ, it's hot)
The waves are coming in in threes
You bagged a couple of Chinook helicopters for a Beirut barbie
Goon of marine's blood warming gently in the sun
One hand, you got a nice cool tube of XXXX
And the other hand you got the biggest Queensland
Cocktail you've ever seen in your life
Now you know what I'm talking about, don't ya?
Little scoob, little numero, little spliffoonie
You've got all rolled up in a copy of the Australian Women's Weekly
Them taree heads, that Mullen bindi madness
That devil's weed from hell
You've rolled yourself up a little zombie weed
And you take a little toke of that little number
And suddenly, it's summertime
Summertime (Summertime)
And the livin' is easy
The fish are jumpin' (Jumpin') up
And the cotton is high
(The cotton's as high as an elephant's eye)
Your daddy's rich (Daddy's rich)
And your mama's good lookin'
So hush (Hush), baby, don't you cry
One of these mornings
You're gonna wake up singin' (Susspanwah)
You're gonna spread your wings (You'll spread your wings)
And reach for the sky (Reach for the sky)
Until that mornin' (Mornin')
There ain't nothin' can harm you
With your mammy and daddy standin' by
Summertime (Summertime)
And the livin' is easy
The fish are jumpin' (Jumpin') up
And the cotton is high
(The cotton's as high as an elephant's eye)
Your daddy's rich (Daddy's rich)
And your mama's good lookin'
So hush (Hush), baby, don't you cry
One of these mornings
You're gonna wake up singin' (Susspanwah)
You're gonna spread your wings (You'll spread your wings)
And reach for the sky (Starring Kenneth More)
Until that mornin' (Mornin')
There ain't nothin' can harm you
With your mammy and daddy standin' by
Thank you
