Members Of The MCC

tune: born to run [springsteen]     words: john ogge-champion

1.

by day we sit in the boardrooms of

our Daddies’ companies

at night we drive down Balwyn Road

in our 4 wheel drive machines

raised on Melway map 59

we grew up living on the right side of the tramlines - woh -

baby my Volvo’s got a roof rack

and the private school kiddies in the back

they go to Wesley and Haileybury

and baby blokes like us we’re members of the MCC

2.

I keep the chains and the ski gear in the 4 car garage

For the long weekends

I’m tossing up between a Lexus and a Merc.

To go with my BM

Baby it’s been a long season

And I might go insane if I don’t escape to Dinner Plain - woh -

When we get through this financial year

If the Nasdaq’s right I’m gonna

Hit the slopes in France or Italy

and baby blokes like us we’re members of the MCC

3.

I’m gonna flash my medallion

Meet some friends of the old man

For a pre-game chardonnay

We’re gonna shoot the breeze about Securities

And find out who’s playin’ today

Baby I’m getting’ tired of all these jokers

who keep singing sarcastic songs about the Dees

and baby blokes like us we’re members of the MCC
