lyrics
WHO PUT THE BUDS?
(In My Boogie Board bag)
VERSE 1
I went to Bali in a big jet air plane
Been before, now I come back again
The dude down in customs, he says “Man, you're insane
Come into my room, I expect you to explain.
Your boogie board bag, it has a big lump
Looks to me like a dromedary hump
And then my mind, it started to jump
And my heart began to bump and thump and I say
CHORUS
Who put the buds in my boogie board bag?
Who put the buds in my boogie board bag now?
Been here too long and I want to go back
Who put the buds in my boogie board bag?
VERSE 2
The man he say that I must go to court
No bail or bakshish, nothing of the sort
I said to him man, I do not smoke or snort
He said I'm sorry but it seems you've been caught
My mum she come just to show that she care
I say yeah well that's fair but don't stand there and swear
But in the court room she scream and she shout
She go crazy and she wave her hands about she say
CHORUS
BRIDGE
Oh for a padlock
A small Chinese one with a brass key
Oh I am having such bad luck
Why did this have to happen to me?
So then I land in a lonely Legian lock up
All because of some Melbourne gang drug deal cock-up
And now they put me out on parole
but they won't let me go and still I'd really like to know
CHORUS
