Adam:
|
Surfers!
|
|
Wil:
|
The musical!
|
|
Adam:
|
Okay, so we've asked for an interpretation of that - all the beautiful things about Surfers' Paradise. And the last second we threw in - I was chatting with a mate the other day and we were reflecting on - you've always got some friend from primary school or high school who's got a bit of a weird or silly name. If it could feature someone with a name that would just make you giggle.
|
|
|
Tripod, take it away!
|
|
|
|
|
Scod:
|
Look at us,
|
|
|
Isn't it funny?
|
|
|
So safe and secure in our own little world.
|
|
|
|
|
Yon:
|
We had no fuss,
|
|
|
Life was so sunny.
|
|
|
|
|
Scod:
|
But baby, we come from different worlds,
|
|
|
I come from Sea World and you come from Movie World.
|
|
|
|
|
Yon:
|
You, a senior dolphin trainer,
|
|
|
And me, a Wonderwoman impersonator.
|
|
|
|
|
Scod:
|
Oh, Bindy...
|
|
Yon:
|
Oh, Grant... Let us embrace before someone sees us.
|
|
|
|
|
Gatesy:
|
Hey Bindy, where you at?
|
|
|
|
|
Scod:
|
Who's that?
|
|
Yon:
|
That's my brother. He's Rocky.
|
|
Scod:
|
Your brother's Rocky?
|
|
Yon:
|
No, no, he impersonates Rocky. You know, for photos and that.
|
|
|
|
|
Scod:
|
Oh Bindy, where you come from seems like a whole different world.
|
|
Yon:
|
Don't let my brother see us together. Quick, run!
|
|
Scod:
|
I'll see you tonight at the schoolie's week dance!
|
|
|
|
|
Gatesy:
|
Yo, Bindy! You got your dress for the party tonight? They say there's gonna be a rumble.
|
|
Yon:
|
Why do you people always have to fight with the people of Sea World?
|
|
|
|
|
Gatesy:
|
It's just the way of things,
|
|
|
The way of things,
|
|
|
The way of things.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Even if you think that he's dishy,
|
|
Gatesy and Scod:
|
Never trust a man who smells fishy.
|
|
|
|
|
Gatesy:
|
It'll never work,
|
|
|
I'd go beserk,
|
|
|
I'd kill the jerk,
|
|
Gatesy:
|
Hypothetically!
|
|
|
|
|
Gatesy:
|
Don't let me see ya ever cross the border,
|
|
Gatesy and Scod:
|
Are you telling me they don't wee in the water?
|
|
|
In any case, tonight we're gonna slaughter,
|
|
|
Those jerks at Sea World.
|
|
|
|
|
Scod:
|
Oh Flipper, I just saw Bindy, and gosh I love her.
|
|
|
But I don't know what to do.
|
|
|
|
|
Scod:
|
Oh, Flipper,
|
|
|
What am I gonna do?
|
|
|
I'm in love with a girl,
|
|
|
And the girl's no longer you.
|
|
|
|
|
Gatesy:
|
(Makes dolphin noises)
|
|
|
|
|
Scod:
|
Tonight I'm gonna see her at the dance,
|
|
|
And it's a dangerous romance.
|
|
|
|
|
Gatesy:
|
(More dolphin noises)
|
|
|
|
|
Yon and Scod:
|
Oh, Flipper,
|
|
|
What am I gonna do?
|
|
|
|
|
Scod:
|
Oh Flip, I love you so much!
|
|
|
|
|
Scod:
|
Oh Flipper, what am I gonna do?...
|
|
Gatesy:
|
It's just the way of things...
|
|
|
The way of things...
|
|
Scod:
|
I'm in love with a girl...
|
|
|
She's from a different world to you...
|
|
Gatesy:
|
I'd go beserk...
|
|
|
I'd kill the jerk...
|
|
Scod:
|
And tonight I'm gonna see her at the dance...
|
|
Gatesy:
|
Hypothetically!...
|
|
Scod:
|
And it's a dangerous romance...
|
|
|
|
|
Scod:
|
Wait, who's that over there?
|
|
|
|
|
Gatesy:
|
I'm Batman.
|
|
Scod:
|
Really?
|
|
Gatesy:
|
No, I impersonate Batman, for photos and that, you know.
|
|
Scod:
|
I don't really get it. What's your real name?
|
|
Gatesy:
|
I can't tell you that. People used to tease me at school.
|
|
Scod:
|
Oh, come on.
|
|
Gatesy:
|
Okay. It's "Dax Ipsa".
|
|
|
|
|
Scod:
|
Do you mind if I call you "Batman"?
|
|
Gatesy:
|
Yeah, sure.
|
|
|
|
|
|
I saw you with the girl, and I'm telling Rocky.
|
|
Scod:
|
The real Rocky?
|
|
Gatesy:
|
No! For photos.
|
|
Scod:
|
Oh, right, so okay... none of you are real?
|
|
Gatesy:
|
Look, the point is, I'm telling Rocky!
|
|
|
|
|
Gatesy:
|
They're gonna know,
|
|
|
You're gonna go,
|
|
|
They're gonna know.
|
|
|
|
|
|
We know about the secret romance...
|
|
Scod:
|
Oh Flipper, what am I gonna do?...
|
|
Gatesy:
|
And tonight we're gonna get you at the dance...
|
|
Yon:
|
Tonight! Tonight! Tonight!

We know about the secret romance...

And tonight we're gonna get you at the dance...
