So in case you missed the Brisbane news from earlier in the week, a woman was allegedly caught three times the legal driving limit, driving her car down the pedestrian/cycle boardwalk in South Bank.
I was strolling along there earlier today, just impressed that she managed (again allegedly) to get it on the boardwalk without putting her car into the drink. I was so inspired I thought I'd write (or at least heavily plagiarise) an homage.
Full points if you can guess the tune!
Over the Boardwalk
Oh, when the sun beats down, over the Atkinson Dam,
I’ve been drinking so much, that I’m not even sure of where
I am
Over the boardwalk, down by the city, yeah,
In an unregistered Mitsubishi, is where I’ll be
(Over the boardwalk) My dog in the back
(Over the boardwalk) I got a little off track
(Over the boardwalk) By the State Library
(Over the boardwalk) Drinking some more VB’s
Over the boardwalk, boardwalk!
From the Kurilpa Parkway, you see the City Cats flying by,
And all the cyclists are dodging, cos they don’t want to die
Over the boardwalk, down by the city,
In an unregistered Mitsubishi, is where I’ll be
(Over the boardwalk) My dog in the back
(Over the boardwalk) I got a little off track
(Over the boardwalk) By the State Library
(Over the boardwalk) Drinking some more VB’s
Over the boardwalk, boardwalk!
Ooh, over the boardwalk, down by the city, yeah,
Full enough to blow point one-five-three, is where I’ll be
(Over the boardwalk) My dog in the back
(Over the boardwalk) I got a little off track
(Over the boardwalk) By the State Library
(Over the boardwalk) Drinking some more VB’s
Over the boardwalk, boardwalk!
