Six & Out: Can't Bowl Can't Throw
Album: Six & Out (2000)
Ooooooh...
I was trying out for the high school cricket team
Dreamed one day I'd be wearing that baggy green
I gave it all I've got
When we were done the coach called me over and said, "Sorry son"
Chorus:
But you can't bowl and you can't throw
I'm just telling you what everybody knows
Absolute sitters, you put down
All the tail-enders hit you out of the ground
Don't ask Warney, it was cameraman Joe he'll say
You can't bowl and you can't throw
Ooooooh...
I went for an audition down at Channel Nine
Richie's job, well it was gonna be mine
He sent a message on the auto cue
It said "Thanks for coming, and we'll call you"
[Repeat Chorus]
Well I met this good looker down at the local bar
And I told her she was talking to this big time cricket star
I told her my stats and I dropped my name
She said, "Never heard of you, and I hate that game"
[Repeat Chorus]
I'm just telling you what everybody knows
Absolute sitters, you put down
All the tail-enders hit you out of the ground
Don't ask Warney, it was cameraman Joe he'll say
You can't bowl and you can't throw
Ooooooh...
(I can't bowl, can't throw)
Ooooooh...
(Can't bowl, can't throw)
Ooooooh...
(can't bowl, can't throw)
