horrible histories - australia song lyrics
in britain’s georgian times
there were so many crimes
no time to hang each crook guilty of a felony
cos there’s no room to jail you
they’d send you to australia
to live in our new-fangled penal colony
think that sounds like heaven?
in 1787, it wasn’t that kind of once in a lifetime trip
first fleet took the journey
months at sea so churny
over 40 died while they were on the ship
those that lived were plucky
plucky, plucky, plucky
crammed on board with rats and vermin, c-ckroaches in bed
stench inside was sicky
yucky, yucky, icky
lice not very nice, can’t get them out of my head
landed bay of botany
convicts’ life was rotteny
needed food and shelter but everything failed
threes too strong for felling
stagnant water smelling
a real step back in time in new south wales
soil too poor for budding
huts washed up by flooding
plans for building houses came to sticky ends
the best of all their labours
attacked by local natives
and that is when your neighbours don’t become good friends
situation tricky
tricky, tricky, tricky
then a second fleet of ships was due aground
some thought this was lucky
but illness had strucky
half were dead or i’ll
fever was spinning around
after seven years
convict record clears
just one catch
you got to pay your own way back
no wages meant no money
no choice, but what’s funny
many stayed, became farmers and made a stack
original arrivers
proved hardy survivors
sydney turned into a place you’d choose to go
think that they’d be fairer
to convicts who were sent there?
no way they built prisons even more remote
port arthur was one of the jails
where every escape attempt fails
was one man who nearly got through
billy hunt dressed as a kangaroo
inmate’s life still sucky
sucky, sucky, sucky
life behind bars was not very nice
hideous and messy
who would ever guessy
this h-llhole would become a
holiday paradise?
