[Verse]
I waCs sitting down having me lunch today
When Ca strange sight caught my eye
A diCrty big blowie was hitchin' a ride
On the baGck of another fly
ThFen I looked across at the window
Where a loCuvre it was broke
TheCy were flying in like siamese twins
And I almGost bloody choCked
They were jGoined in copulation
On the amrCest of the chair
AlCl increasing population fornGicating everywhere
They were shaFgging in the kitchen
They were shaCgging in the hall
WChile keeping perfect rythym
With the clGock upon the waCll
ThGen one randy blue arse bastard
With afCfection for the dead
SpCies a fly stuck to the paper
Hanging jGust above me head
And he posFtumourusly rapes her
And gets sCtuck up there like a bat
Oh iCf your a fly and you had to die
Would you lGike to die like tChat
WelCl me dad came home from work
All Cbuggered hot and dry
SaiCd if I don't have a coldie soon
I'm Gsurely gonna die
No soFoner had he poured it out
And LCord he had a fit
When Ca double deckered duo
Down Gupon the froth they lCit
And Cas they swam, they humped and drank
And Cbreaststroked 'round the glass
The Celectric light was gleaming
BrigGht off his iridescent arse
And slFowly drunk they finally sunk
At laCst when the beer was flat
Now Cif I was a fly and I had to die
I'd Glike to die like thCat
WelCl the family were all sitting down
The Cevening meal to dine
A gCreat big chook that mum had cooked
ReaGlly looked divine
Then those douFble deckered blowies
ReaCppeared from everywhere
DepCravity was on the wing
And lGust was in the aCir
TheCy were scruffing in the stuffin'
And Con the potatoes
And Cone was chockabloc
Perched Gon the parson's nose
It was qFuick but it was messy
Down cCame the swatter flat
Oh Cif your a fly and you had to die
Would you lGike to die like tChat
Oh if yGour a fly and you had to die
Would you liCke it quick and clean
AnaeCthitised before your eyes
With GPebeau or Mortein
But of Fall the ways that I could die
I'd like to drCown in beer the best
But CI'll be happy you know
WheCn it's time to go
If GI go on the nCest
I'lCl be happy you know
WheCn it's time to go
If GI go on the nCestG  C

[Verse]

I was sitting down having me lunch today

When a strange sight caught my eye

A dirty big blowie was hitchin' a ride

On the back of another fly

Then I looked across at the window

Where a louvre it was broke

They were flying in like siamese twins

G C

And I almost bloody choked

They were joined in copulation

On the amrest of the chair

C G

All increasing population fornicating everywhere

They were shagging in the kitchen

They were shagging in the hall

While keeping perfect rythym

G C

With the clock upon the wall

Then one randy blue arse bastard

With affection for the dead

Spies a fly stuck to the paper

Hanging just above me head

And he postumourusly rapes her

And gets stuck up there like a bat

Oh if your a fly and you had to die

G C

Would you like to die like that

Well me dad came home from work

All buggered hot and dry

Said if I don't have a coldie soon

I'm surely gonna die

No sooner had he poured it out

And Lord he had a fit

When a double deckered duo

G C

Down upon the froth they lit

And as they swam, they humped and drank

And breaststroked 'round the glass

The electric light was gleaming

Bright off his iridescent arse

And slowly drunk they finally sunk

At last when the beer was flat

Now if I was a fly and I had to die

G C

I'd like to die like that

Well the family were all sitting down

The evening meal to dine

A great big chook that mum had cooked

Really looked divine

Then those double deckered blowies

Reappeared from everywhere

Depravity was on the wing

G C

And lust was in the air

They were scruffing in the stuffin'

And on the potatoes

And one was chockabloc

Perched on the parson's nose

It was quick but it was messy

Down came the swatter flat

Oh if your a fly and you had to die

G C

Would you like to die like that

Oh if your a fly and you had to die

Would you like it quick and clean

Anaethitised before your eyes

With Pebeau or Mortein

But of all the ways that I could die

I'd like to drown in beer the best

But I'll be happy you know

When it's time to go

G C

If I go on the nest

I'll be happy you know

When it's time to go

G C G C

If I go on the nest
