Well, thank you very much.
I'd like to finish my little spot for tonight with a song, song written by young, young John Williamson.
And, uh, it's a little song he wrote all about those bachelor and spinster's balls they have out in the bush.
Or you can call them spinster and bachelor's balls.
I don't care however you like to look at it.
And this little song is called the Waratah Rock and Roll Ball.
Thank you.

[G] And I was thinking of [E] the girl, was she nice and [D] you know, what was my chance.
[C] When I tore the [G] crotch right out of my [C] brand new piss.
So I pulled on my jeans and my thongs and [D] I said what the heck.
[C] If they don't let [G] us in I'll take you to [C] the discotheque.
[E] So [C] I'm walking up a driveway feeling like [Am] a boy in his teens.
[C] When this big mongrel [G] dog tears the right leg [C] off of me jeans.
[G] [C] Come on get [G] out of there.
[C] Come on sit [G] down you righty.
[C] [G] So with blood [Em] on my shin and my right knee sticking [D] out.

[G] [Cm] Well you should have seen the [G] size of the bloke that answered [D] the bell.
[C] He said hey [G] Sherl come and see what thinks is [C] going to take out our little girl.
[G] [C] [G]

[C] I like your little puppy dog.
[G]
My poor little dog.
[C] [G]
[Cm] Well I shrunk to the size [C] of a dog and I lowered [D] my tail.
And I [F] faded into the [G] shadows [C] sad and pale.
