Turn
the house lights down,
the audience is seated
What's going to hit this town tonight
may never be repeated
They've come from all around
the joint to try and be the best
At the annual
Bimby
Amateur
Talent
Quest
And they plan to use the local hall
to stage the big event
But in the end they had to hire a
great big canvas tent.
The problem was the hall burnt
down at the last big
B &S.
That didn't stop the
Bimby
Talent
Quest.
Two bucks a ticket an
d the kids got in for free.
It was quite a big event for
the little town of
Bimby.
Everyone who fronted
up declared it a success.
And it's my bet they won't forget the
Bimby
Talent
Quest
Now the backing band were loc
al lads together for the night
They found it hard to play by ear and they
couldn't play by sight
They might have all played out of
tune but no -one was distressed
Cos
Toes were tapping at the
Bimby
Talent
Quest
Two bucks a ticket an
d the kids got in for free
It was quite a big event for
the little town of
Bimby
Everyone who fronted
up declared it a success
And it's my bet they won't forget the
Bimby
Talent
Quest
They had a draw for the lucky door
and it came as a surprise
That one of the local clergymen was
the one who scored the prize.
Now what he'll do with a case of scotches,
anybody's guess.
And he was glad he came to the
Bimby
Talent
Quest.
Two bucks a ticket an
d the kids got in for free.
It was quite a big event for
the little town of
Bimby.
Everyone who fronted
up declared it a success.
And it's my bet they
won't forget the
Bimbit's
Alan quest.
Now a local bloke who's got a
name for being quite a wag
Did a rather saucy song dressed
head to toe with drag.
Now
Alfie
Dunk, the local drunk,
was really quite impressed
And followed him home from the
Bimbit's
Alan quest.
Two bucks a ticket and the
kids got in for free
It was quite a big event for
the little town of
Bimby
Everyone who fronted
up declared it a success
And it's my bet they won't forget the
Bimby telegraph
Now the bloke who won the contest
was the bloke the judges chose
He came from out the dungra,
played a gum leaf with his nose.
We were a bit suspicious,
he was chosen as the best.
Cos his mother judged the
Bimby
Talent
Quest.
Two bucks a ticket and
the kids got in for free.
It was quite a big event for
the little town of
Bimby.
Everyone who fronted
up declared it a success.
And it's my bet they
won't forget the
Bibbitellin' grass.
