Shazza and Michelle Songtext
Down in Bendigo
There were these two girls, Shazza and Michelle
They won a talent contest, they could sing that well
And when their friends heard about the Idol on the radio
They said, "You′ll never know unless you go"
'Cause they could sing just about as good as anybody
And isn′t TV fame just waiting there for everybody?
When the choices are the nursing or start rehearsing
I don't think you're gonna need too much coercing
Shazza and Michelle, they′ve got to be strong, yeah
Been led into temptation down in Babylon, yeah
SMS your vote, judge′s decision is final
Will they one day be worshipped as an idol?
They got the bus and a kangaroo flattened at one
The butterflies hopping as they entered Babylon
Joined the football match crowd at the audition
So little talent, so much ambition
They were told originality is vital
As long as you follow all the rules
You'll be entitled the total freedom to sign away your copyright
I′ll show you how you could be the Idol
Well, they met a cool fella called Nebuchadnezzar
He said, "Let me help you get your career together
I can introduce you to a TV producer"
But when they met her, she looked more like Medusa
They showed Shazza and Michelle a whole new world
An eye-opener for humble country girls
Nights of club hopping, pill popping, name dropping
Days of shift work, kitchen mopping
But then things kinda got weird with Nebuchadnezzar
When he couldn't play the girls off
He tried to play with them together
He′s good looking and he's free, he′s got a wife
He's got a lot of money, he's got no life
He′s a real go-getter, he′s insecure
He says he'll love you forever, next week, not sure
His wife doesn′t understand him, neither will you
It's hard being male these days, but soon
You bring out his softer side
Despite your G and T, he′ll never lay a hand on you
Yeah, I'm Tommy Lee
Well, the children of Bendigo would not bow down
You couldn′t fool the children with no golden idol
That attitude soon proved career suicidal
The rent notes came along
Time to get out of Babylon
They got the bus back to Bendigo
A job in the old folks' home
Singing all those great old songs
At the afternoon sing-along
And the old folks worshipped them like an idol
Shazza and Michelle, they've got to be strong, yeah
Been led into temptation down in Babylon, yeah
SMS your vote, judge′s decision is final
Will they one day be worshipped as an idol?
Nebuchadnezzar thinks they′re trapped forever
In a straitjacket life with a cell door feature
I wonder what he sees when he looks in the mirror
There were these two girls, Shazza and Michelle
They won a talent contest, they could sing that well
And when their friends heard about the Idol on the radio
They said, "You′ll never know unless you go"
'Cause they could sing just about as good as anybody
And isn′t TV fame just waiting there for everybody?
