(let's have some) Fun... (we'll) Drink... (a toast to the) Sun... In summer the bushfires rage and rage And rage On such beautiful days And we fight them with water that runs through the cracks Water we're desperately trying to save So I'll just live on wine and water my vines And sleep on the wind with the fires right behind And sing on the beaches and dance through the night Oh we'll cry 'pass the wine, pass the wine, pass the wine' Run... (let's have some) Fun... (we'll) Drink... (a toast to the) Sun... Oh what a beautiful day today! Today's a day to celebrate Grab your bucket, grab your spade We're heading down to Half Moon Bay I saw a plane go into a cloud I'm drunk I'm happy I'm singing and loud Two o'clock in the arvo, but hey that's allowed... I'm having a good time and of that I am proud
