LYRICS

Rhythm of Leaf

Verse

Blackheath started out with only wallabies
Possums and the local aborigines,
Suddenly a voice said. “Here we are,
We’ve all arrived from overseas.”
& the voice said, “Blackheath it is time to shine
To grow some salad that’s quite divine
Get your veggies down you past your teeth-
Spread the religion of The Rhythm Of Leaf.”

Chorus
And The Rhythm Of Leaf is a powerful beat,
Puts a tingle in your fingers and a tingle in your feet.
Rhythm in your bedroom, Rhythm in the street,
Yes, The Rhythm Of Leaf is a powerful beat,
To feel The Rhythm Of Leaf,
To feel the powerful beat,
To feel the tingle your fingers,
To feel the tingle in your feet,

Nowadays Blackheath has lots of salad
Garden Waldorf Caesar Dressed and Bare
All of us are feeling really healthy
Eating yummy salad everwhere
And the voice said “Now add grated carrot
Capsicum and cucumber in little bits
If you eat up all your salad
You will never get big zits

(Chorus)
Take a dive and swim to Blackheath,
Take a dive and swim to Blackheath,
Take a dive and swim to Blackheath,
Swim, swim, swim to Blackheath
Hit the floor and crawl to Blackheath.
Hit the floor and crawl to Blackheath,
Hit the floor and crawl to Blackheath,
Crawl, crawl, crawl to Blackheath

(Chorus)
Flip your wings and fly to Blackheath,
Take a dive and swim to Blackheath,
Hit the floor and crawl to Blackheath.
Blackheath we got The Rhythm Of Leaf,
Of leaf, of leaf, of leaf.
Rock a Bye Baby

Rock a bye baby born in Blackheath
Your bottom is smelly & you don’t have teeth
Stop screaming now or you know what we’ll do
Send you to Lithgow where they will eat you

Rock a bye baby almost asleep
Let’s go for a walk down to Govett’s Leap
Stop crying now or down you will fall
Right down the cliff face cradle and all

Rock a bye baby Rhodunzel Punch
If I sat on you, you would go crunch
Stop crying now or soon we will shout
Here we all are at Evans Look OUT!

When I Fall In Love #1

When I fall in love
It will be in Blackheath
And I’ll only love a Blackheath girl
When I see you picking daisies
Feral flowers are filling the air
And my heart beets just like crazy
Knowing you know I know you’re there

When I give my heart
It will be in Blackheath
Or I’ll never give my heart
And the moment I can feel that
Feeling you feel for me too
Is when I fall in love with you


When I Fall In Love #2

When I fall in love
It will be with hardware
And my catalogue will be up to date
All my parts will be numbered
And my sales racks will be kept full
And if you want some lumber
One of us can help you
How do you solve a problem like Rhodunzel?

How do you solve a problem like Rhodunzel?
Is she manic-depressive or just down?
No-one wants a problem like Rhodunzel
A psycho, a werewolf, a clown

How do you solve a problem like Rhodunzel?
How do you make her just like one of us?
Don’t let her go out alone?
She might be violence prone!
Bi-polar or just making lots of fuss

How do you solve a problem like Rhodunzel?
How do you fix her so that she’ll go away?

How do you solve a problem like Rhodunzel?
Give her lots of pills until she laughs
No-one wants a problem like Rhodunzel
I think that she must be a psycho path

How do you solve a problem like Rhodunzel?
What’s our favourite theory for today?
Let’s fry some electric shocks
Or lock her up in a box
Let’s grill her Let’s kill her Let’s send her on her way

How do you solve a problem like Rhodunzel?
How do you fix her so that she’ll go away?

The Colt From Old Regret

He’s got turbo thrusters
He’s got fluffy dice
He’s got ABS braking
Face it, he’s just nice

(Refrain)
The colt from old regret (× 3)

He’s got 64 horse power
And high compression gear knobs
And twin overhead fox tails
He’s faster than a welsh cob

(Refrain)

Every ride’s an adventure
With blinkers on either side
Feed him oats or bananas
Oh boy, what a ride

(Refrain)
Blackheath Belongs To Me

The sun on the meadow is summery warm
The winter is very wintry
The Autumn is like Autumn
And Spring is too
Blackheath belongs to me

The People in Blackheath are friendly & warm
And there ‘s something to do
With fog rain and bushfires and wind and storm
Blackheath belongs to you

In pubs and cafes our wise men still talk
Of Blackheathens heroic deeds
Whenever Blackheathens fing something wrong
Then Blackheath secedes!

Now Blackheathens, Blackheathens,
Show us the sign
we don’t want to have any fuss
The morning will come
When the world is mine
Blackheath belongs to us
Blackheath belongs
Blackheath belongs
Blackheath belongs to us

Let Your Hair Down

Here comes the butcher he’s got tasty cutlets
He’s got special meat trays & some lovely sausage
But he’s just not making her day
He’s not the Prince of Blackheath so she’ll push him away

Chorus:
Let your hair down, Rhodunzel, over me

Here comes the baker he’s got crusty topping
He’s got very fresh rolls he’s got great big French stick
But he’s just one sour dough
He’s not the Prince of Blackheath so he’ll just have to go

Chorus:
He’s Oompah Loompah he’s got lovely chocolates
He’s got special trousers he’s a balance tanker
He got feet down below his knees
He’s still not Prince Humey and she’s so hard to please

Chorus:
He’s Baron MacHeath, he’s got lovely mustaches
He’s a real estate agent he’s got lovely billboards
He says “One and one and one for me”
He’s not the Prince of Blackheath but he’s talked to Humey

Chorus:
