Gidday mate It's been awhile Since I've seen your crooked smile Your ginger locks and goatee Always seem to amaze me You'd seem to be a quiet as you can Questioning everything was your plan But deep inside was a roar It just had trouble finding the door Your heart was bigger than the sun In your life it was just fun Cruising around in your FJ Your old mans pride you'd say Your family as solid as a rock Obviously from good stock Music the key to your world Guitar notes you would unfurl Dibbling and dabbling we would explore The world of drugs how could you ignore So when things went a little astray I guided you through it with little say Steered you through my darkest hour While making sure you didn't go sour But after that things did change A distance emerged from your range Angst developed from your family Directed towards all of me I think it was because you liked a drink And I was the influence that made them think How could there boy come undone We have to blame someone Little did they understand You were enjoying your life as your plan And even though you invited me in I steered clear of the evil drink This was never because of you Just of my weakness that I knew..........
