The Lyrics
You call me up, invite me round with all the guys
I say okay, got nothing better to do
But if you're gonna cook outside
There'd better be cold drinks supplied
If you've got the esky filled
Then you know I'll be there
Barbecue today sounds nice
Long as you keep the beer on ice
Give me a steak, you know beer goes
Really well with it
Think there's cricket on TV, so turn the game on
I really hate to watch it by myself
Nothing makes my life as complete
Standing round in the summer heat
And hanging out with all my mates
And you must agree
Barbecue today sounds nice
Long as you keep the beer on ice
Give me a steak, you know beer goes
Really well with it
This kind of recreation
It's perfect relaxation
Feels like I'm on vacation
Beer is a grand creation
I've still got lots of room left over for some seconds
Give me a sausage and a beef kebab
And what the hell, another steak
Let's see how much food I can take
And when I need to wash it down
Back to the drinking
Barbecue today sounds nice
Long as you keep the beer on ice
If we run out, I think you'll find
That we will all leave you behind
Hope there's lots of beer on ice
I'm lost in a drunken paradise
And I will take some home tonight
Put it in my fridge
I say okay, got nothing better to do
But if you're gonna cook outside
There'd better be cold drinks supplied
If you've got the esky filled
Then you know I'll be there
Barbecue today sounds nice
Long as you keep the beer on ice
Give me a steak, you know beer goes
Really well with it
Think there's cricket on TV, so turn the game on
I really hate to watch it by myself
Nothing makes my life as complete
Standing round in the summer heat
And hanging out with all my mates
And you must agree
Barbecue today sounds nice
Long as you keep the beer on ice
Give me a steak, you know beer goes
Really well with it
This kind of recreation
It's perfect relaxation
Feels like I'm on vacation
Beer is a grand creation
I've still got lots of room left over for some seconds
Give me a sausage and a beef kebab
And what the hell, another steak
Let's see how much food I can take
And when I need to wash it down
Back to the drinking
Barbecue today sounds nice
Long as you keep the beer on ice
If we run out, I think you'll find
That we will all leave you behind
Hope there's lots of beer on ice
I'm lost in a drunken paradise
And I will take some home tonight
Put it in my fridge

A parody of one of my fave songs from one of my fave groups by one of my fave parody authors... yep, life is good. :) Nice job.
Boy, you sure are making it difficult to avoid that "shrimp on the barbie" joke. I'll come, but do we have to watch cricket?
Melhi: Thanks! You're stuff isn't bad either, I suppose. ;) Rick: I don't actually watch cricket myself, so you'd be safe. It did seem to go with the theme of the parody, though.
