Monty Python - Australian table wine lyrics
[Monty Python - Australian table wine lyrics]
Good evening! For the first time, on record
A 29 part adoptation of King Solomon's
Mines - Wines, sorry
Wines - King Solomon's Wines
A lot of people in this country pooh-pooh
Australian table wines this is a
Pity, as many fine Australian wines appeal
Not only to the Australian palette
But also to the cognoscenti of Great Britain
"Black Stump Bordeaux" is rightly praised
As a peppermint flavoured Burgundy
Whilst a good "Sydney Syrup" can rank with
Any of the world's best sugary wines
"Chateau Bleu", too, has won many prizes
Not least for it's taste
And it's lingering afterburn
"Old Smokey, 1968" has been compared
Favourably to a Welsh claret
Whilst the Australian
Wino society thouroughly recommends
A 1970 "Coq
Du Rod Laver", which, believe me
Has a kick on it like a
Mule: 8 bottles of this, and
You're really finished - at the opening
Of the Sydney Bridge Club
They were fishing them out of the
Main sewers every half an hour
Of the sparkling wines
The most famous is "Perth Pink"
This is a bottle with a message in
And the message is BEWARE! this is
Not a wine for drinking
- this is a wine for laying down and avoiding
Another good fighting wine is "Melbourne
Old-and-Yellow", which is particularly heavy
And should be used only
For hand-to hand combat
Quite the reverse is true of "Chateau
Chunder", which is an appellation controle
Specially grown for those keen on
Regurgitation - a fine wine
Which really opens up the
Sluices at both ends
Real emetic fans will also go
For a "Hobart Muddy", and a
Prize winning "Cuiver Reserve Chateau Bottled
Nuit San Wogga Wogga"
Which has a bouquet like an aborigine armpit
A 29 part adoptation of King Solomon's
Mines - Wines, sorry
Wines - King Solomon's Wines
