lyrics

WELL DEMENTIA’S AT THE DOOR, AND THE KIDS KEEP WANTING MORE
WE’RE SICK OF ALL THE HANGERS ON, NOW AUSTRALIA WE’LL EXPLORE
SO WE BOUGHT A CARAVAN AND WE’RE MAKING UP A PLAN
WE’LL LEAVE OUR TROUBLES FAR AWAY, EXPLORE THIS WONDERLAND
WE WANT ADVENTURE BEFORE DEMENTIA, WE’LL LEAVE OUR TROUBLES
FAR BEHIND, GIVE US ADVENTURE BEFORE DEMENTIA, GONNA HAVE SOME FUN BEFORE WE LOSE OUR MIND
YEaH WE’LL PARK BESIDE THE SEA, WITH NO KIDS TO BOTHER ME
JOIN THE OTHER GREY NOMADS, WE’RE FINALLY BREAKING FREE
THOSE NEIGHBOURS THEY MADE US CRY, 'TIL WE LOOKED THEM IN THE EYE
NO RATES NO RENT NO MONEY SPENT, WE’VE KISSED THEM ALL GOODBYE
WE’LL HIT THAT FROG AND TOAD, AND OUR BOAT COMPLETES THE LOAD, JUST TWO OTHER GREY NOMADS
WE’RE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND TONIGHT WE’LL PARK THAT VAN
SOMEWHERE NEAR THE SHIFTING SAND, WE’LL FISH ALONG THE BEACH
WHILE SIPPING STUBBIES IN OUR HANDS
WELL THE KIDS THEY’RE HOPPING MAD, SINCE WE LEFT THEM ON THEIR OWN
WE’RE SPENDING THEIR INHERITANCE AND HANGING UP THE PHONE
WE LAUGH UNTIL WE CRY, AS WE WATCH THE WORLD GO BY
HEADING FOR ADVENTURE ONE MORE TIME BEFORE WE DIE

about

Louey Hesterman Apollo Bay, Australia

Louey Hesterman’s Whimsy is an autobiographical tale beginning in Echuca by the Murray River and travelling via
Melbourne, Mildura and Vietnam to come to rest comfortably in Apollo Bay.
The scene for Whimsy has been set, and the flights of fancy that include a voyage to the South Seas and a seemingly impossible mash-up of Celtic reels and surf rock suddenly make sense.
Sort of!
