Come to the Barbecue Lyrics
Chorus: Come to the barbecue (prawns, snags and chops)
It’s just the thing to do (prawns, snags and chops)
Ask all your friends around and come to the barbecue
My Uncle Fred will be there, last week he dyed his hair
Mum says I mustn’t stare, but I’ll take a look
And there’ll be sister Rose, with rings stuck through her nose
And she’ll strike such a pose, I could write a book,
It’s gonna be fun so
Chorus: Come to the barbecue (prawns, snags and chops)
It’s just the thing to do (prawns, snags and chops)
Ask all your friends around and come to the barbecue
Watch Dad, he’ll burn the lot, watch Mum she’ll do her top
And smoke will drift into everybody’s eyes
We’ll jump right in the pool, at least in there it’s cool
What is that noise? Look out here comes the flies.
It’s gonna be fun so
Chorus: Come to the barbecue (prawns, snags and chops)
It’s just the thing to do (prawns, snags and chops)
Ask all your friends around and come to the barbecue
Spoken Voice: Anyone seen the tomato sauce?
