THE BLOKE WHO INVENTED BEER Rolf Harris (Pub noises - laughter and talking) SPOKEN: Okay you lot, all right, all right, you fellahs, now you're all drinking up and havin' a good time, how about a round of applause for the gent who made all this possible ... .... the bloke who invented beer. Are you gonna join me in a musical tribute to this noble benefactor? (Too right!) How about a cheer for the bloke who invented beer He gave this tired old world a spark They should have his statue in ev'ry park Life was so drear till this genius thought up beer So, charge your glasses, drink a cheer To the bloke who invented beer SPOKEN: Yes, us fellahs know that the invention of beer was the greatest thing that ever happened to mankind, ahead of electricity and airplanes and all that other stuff. But did the bloke who invented beer get the credit and recognition he deserves......NO! No, he don't. But we don't forget him. Just look at our pub motto, Caesar was great and so was Nero, but the bloke who invented beer's a hero! So c'mon, loosen up your tonsils and let's give it another burst. Are you ready? Well, let's go then...... Oh, how about a cheer for the bloke who invented beer We'd all be shakin' and quakin' flops If we couldn't gargle our throats with hops He was the first to defeat the old demon thirst So, charge your glasses, drink a cheer To the bloke who invented beer How about a cheer for the bloke who invented beer Though not one hist'ry book gives his name We say he will stay in the hall of fame Man's joys were few, till our hero brought out his brew So, charge your glasses, drink a cheer To the bloke who invented beer Yeah, life was so drear till this genius thought up beer So, charge your glasses, drink a cheer To the bloke who invented beer (Pub noises - laughter and talking) Yeah, life was so drear till this genius thought up beer So, charge your glasses, drink a cheer To the bloke who invented beer........FADE (Transcribed by Mel Priddle - October 2005)
