JCB Song
Lyric by Luke Concannon (apart from lyric within speech marks, which features courtesy of Christie Hennessey, Redemption Songs, Chrysalis).
Performed by Nizlopi (Concannon/Parker)

Well I’m rumbling in this JCB
I’m 5 years old and my dad’s a giant sitting beside me
The engine rattles my bum like berserk
While we’re singing “don’t forget your shovel if you want to go to work”

And my dad’s probably had a bloody hard day
But he’s being good fun and bubbling and joking away
And the procession of cars stuck behind
Are getting all impatient and angry but we don’t mind

Chorus

And we’re holding up the bypass
Me and my dad having a top laugh
And Im sitting on the tool box
And I’m so glad I’m not in school, boss, so glad I’m not in school

We pull over to let the cars pass
And pull off again speeding by this summer green grass
We’re like giants up here in our big yellow digger
Like Zoids or Transformers or maybe even bigger

And I want to transform into a Tyrannosaurus Rex
And eat up all the bullies and the teachers and their pets
And I’ll tell all my mates my dad’s BA Barachas
Only with a JCB and Bruce Lee’s nunchuckas

Chorus

I said I’m Luke I’m 5 and my dad’s Bruce Lee
Drives me round in his JCB
I’m Luke I’m 5 and my dad’s Bruce Lee
Drives me round in his JCB

Chorus, Chorus
