The 12th Man

Marvellous!
Howzat!
Alright fellas!
Are you feeling funky? Are you feeling hip?
Give me a Yo! (Yo!)
Alright!
I want everyone to move and groove and shake their funky things a little bit.
You got my guitar there, Bill? (Got it, yeah! Here you are, Richie)
Okay.
Let's see what this baby can do.
Let's go!
Yadadada Yadadada
(You know, Richie, you're really are a marvellous guitarist)
You really like that do you Tone?
Yo!
Think that's through!
Yadadada
Alright!
Here we go!
5, 4, 3, 2,
Welcome back here to the MCG,
or the Gabba, or the Wacca,
or the Adelaide Oval, or the SCG,
it doesn't matter, where we are
Down under in Australia this summer,
Cause when it's summer, in Australia,
If you don't like cricket, I can tell it is a real bummer
That's beause cricket is the number one game in town
(Yo!) Just ask anyone around
(Yo!) Yo, boys!
From Bondi in the East to across the Bunbury in the West
From Darwin to the Dandenong
Or whatever your address might be
You can see me on the TV
Well not just me, but the commentary team
They're sort of my boys, if you know what I mean
You know, I thought captaining Australia was a pretty tough job
But I can tell you, it's absolutely nothing compared to looking after this mob
Let me see, there's Bill and Tony (Morning Rich| Morning all)
And Greg and Ian (Yes, morning Rich)
And our special guests Soneji and Tony C (Good morning!)
And of course there's me
And we say
What a marvellous catch!
That's a marvellous shot!
What a marvellous crowd, Victorians
C'mon fellas! Let's kick it!
We're the commentary team and what we call the game
It's marvellous!
Yes, everything is marvellous
Because it's marvellous
Yes, it's M-A-R-V-E-L-L-O-U-S
That's right, it's M-A-R-V-E-L-L-O-U-S
Yes, indeed, it really is a marvellous effort that
You every summer night when me head hits the pillow
I drifted off to sleep and I dreamed about leather (What?)
And Will O'Bill, and Border, and Booney, and Deano, and Moody, and Taylor
Just to name just a few of the super Australian side for season 1991-92
(What about Big Merv?)
Yes, him too.
(He's a hero, this man,)
(Oh, c'mon, turn it up, Billo, for it might be you)
(He has a lot of guts)
(Well, he eats too much food)
Hey, hey, you two
Now it doesn't really matter
Look, nobody give a stuff if Big Merv is a little fatter
Just as long as we're thrashing those pakis, or poms,
Or Sri Lanka, or the WIndies, it doesn't matter where they're from
For it might be India, South Africa, Zimbabwe, or New Zealand
But if I don't take a breath I reckon I might be keeling over soon
I'm trying carry on and do my best
(C'mon, Richie, you can't afford to take a rest)
Oh, Streuth!
(C'mon, Richie, we'll get you through it)
Oh, gee!
(We know it's hard, but you can do it)
Ah, thanks alot fellas, think I'm okay
I'll live another day to say

What a marvellous stroke!
And that's a marvellous knock
What a marvellous throw
And that's a marvellous below
C'mon everybody, cricket time!
We're the commentary team and we reckon everything's marvellous
(Yeah yeah yeah)
Yes, it's marvellous!
That's right, it's marvellous
That's right, it's M-A-R-V-E-L-L-O-U-S
You heard me, M-A-R-V-E-L-L-O-U-S
Yes, indeed, it really is a marvellous effort that
My name is Richie, and I am the king
I'm the king commentator, I'm the number one thing
And I'm a singer too, and I'm a jammer
And that's when I become MCG Hammer
And I feel a solo coming on, Bill
(Do it, Richie)
Yo!
(Give it to me hard and fast, Rich)
You got it, Tone
(Oh, well played)
(Make him some solo hits, cause he's a guitar hero, this man)
What a marvellous match
It's a marvellous pitch
What a marvellous game
C'mon, I want to hear everybody
Let's really top it up
We're the commentary team and we reckon everything's marvellous
(Everything is marvellous!)
Marvellous!
Everything's marvellous!
Marvellous!
Everything's marvellous!
You know, it's M-A-R-V-E-L-L-O-U-S
That's right, M-A-R-V-E-L-L-O-U-S
(Marv-ah woah woah oh)
Marv-va -va...
Marvellous!
Could you background singers keep it down, please?
Especially you, Snowy
Marvellous!
Yo!
Everything everything everything
Everything's marvellous!
Everything's marvellous!
Yes, it's M-A-R-V-E-L-L-O-U-S
Spell it out, M-A-R-V-E-L-L-O-U-S
Wahaaaahaaahhhah!
Hey, hey, back off a bit curly
This is our song
Marvellous!
Everything everything everything everything everything everything everything everything
Marvellous!
No, that's not a stammer, that's MCG Hammer, Bill!
(Yo, Richie)
Yo yourself!
Everything's marvellous!

One more, M-A-R-V-E-L-L-O-U-S
Marvellous!
(You okay, Rich?)
Marvellous!
I think everything's okay, Tony
Yes it is, yes it is, yes it is, yes, it's marvellous
Everything's marvellous!
Everything's M-A-R-V-E-L-L-O-U-S
I said, M-A-R-V-E-L-L-O-U-S
Yes, it's M-A-R-V-E-L-L-O-U-S
That's right, it's M-A-R-V-E-L-L-O-U-S
Everything's marvellous!
Everything's marvellous!
Everything's marvellous!
Everything's marvellous!
Everything's M-A-R-V-E-L-L-O-U-S
