Lyrics: Christmas Photo

Oh it’s December in Australia
Time to remember all the family
Christmas tree, native pine
Lights and tinsel, all entwined
Put a fairy on the top
There’s Gran and Pa and Joan and Pop
Ham and turkey’s organised
Won’t the grandkids be surprised?
When Santa comes in big black boots
In the back of Jacko’s Ute

Oh it’s December in Australia
Time to remember all the family
Gather around for a photo
Hang on Less, where did Dad go?
I gotta get everyone in the picture
I don’t know where he’s gone
Oh look here he is, come on Dad, hurry up!
Say Cheese, Cheese
Oh nope, mum’s missing now
That’d be right

Oh yum, yum pig’s bum, Christmas pudding
All the ladies do the cooking
All the men are really slack
Slappin’ each other on the back
How ya goin’ Tangles, how was your year?
Might rain tomorrow, have a cold beer.
I hear young Greg is playin’ fullback,
Guess he gets it all from you Jack,
Blah, blah, blah, blah.
Anyone up for a game of cricket?
Yeah

Oh it’s December in Australia
Time to remember all the family
Gather around for a photo
Hang on Soph, where did Garth go?
I’ve got to get everyone in the picture
Oh OK, hang on I’ll just go find him.
Garth, hurry up!
Oh he’s just here, Garthy quick, come here!
Oh no hang on, now Scotty’s missing
Oh Less, it’s too hard
Let’s just go play cricket, Yeah

Oh me not out, oh yes you are Nick
It’s your ball, Max don’t bowl too quick
Oh Nick has run off with the bat
After him across the flat
C’mon Cub you’ve had a bowl
Give the ball to Christie
Oh Tom Tit, Pee-Wee, Brookie, Side Kick
You’re on my side, grab the bat quick
Now he’s run off with the stump
Better give that Nick a bump
Oh I think I’ll just go have another Rum

Oh it’s December in Australia
Time to remember all the family
Gather around for a photo
Oh hang on Less, where’s Amo?
I gotta get everyone in the picture
I don’t know where she is
I think she’s already started eating
Nah, nah, here she comes, come on Amo
Hurry up, hurry up
Say cheese, Cheese
Oh no hang on, where’s Brandy? Oh Adam!

Oh see the goanna up the gum tree
He’s gonna get a feed today free
When the campers leave the lake
Bits of chook and choccy cake
It’s Christmas time for him as well
See his big long belly swell

Oh it’s December in Australia
Time to remember all the family
Gather around for a photo
Hang on Dad, where’s Thomo?
I gotta get everyone in the picture
Well where is he?
Well I don’t know!
Oh nah, here he is, come on Graham
Hurry up, come on, OK
OK everyone say cheese, Cheese
And… got it!
Oh finally, woo hoo!
Oh it’s December in Australia
