Anzac day is our day of the year
Anzac day is my big day of the year. starting with the morning service then a few
beers with the service boys and then more beers and two up with my mates at the rissole
Ive been doing that since i was old enough to drink
and will continue to honor them till the day i die.


we give this song a bit of a go late Anzac day

Dave Warner's song Convict streak.

by An Australian for Australians
in search of our culture



Maybe its because of our convict streak
we want to fight everyone we meet
Anzac day is our day of the year
we march our march we drink our beer

we dont like slopes we dont like yanks
Id personally like to blow up
every commie tank
We're only a few but we fought in Nam
Packed our guns alongside uncle sam
ask any of us, it were no sin
The only crime was that we didnt win

I'm Australian we all are
we watch our telly and we drive our car
but dont you ever SAY WE'RE WEAK
all youll learn about our convict streak

(chorus)
The poms are week as piss
the french are queer
the Germans are wankers
but they make good beer
dont criticise what you dont understand
if you think i'm talking ****
you dont belong in this land



The world began with Adam and Eve
but australia started at gallipoli
our father put the desert into desert rats
their uncles slipped the boot in
up in lambing flats

dont criticize what you dont understand
its not that were behind in the times
we're in a different land
we might be slobs BUT WE'RE NOT WEAK
maybe its becourse of our convict streak

I'm Australian so are you
it doesn't matter if your ding or Jew
just remember while you're here
you march our march and you drink our beer.
