Land of Vimto

 
Loosely based on the lyrics of Down Under by Men at Work
 
 
LAND OF VIMTO
 
 
Travelling in to Piccadilly
 
on Arriva Trains, heads all a Zombie
 
I met a strange lady in the gardens
 
she took me in and gave me Vimto.
and she said
 
Do you come from the land of Vimto
 
where women groan and men meander
 
Can't you hear, can't you hear my blender
 
full of, full of fruits, cast asunder!
 
Buying the dead from a man in Blackley,
 
he told me he came from Chorlton cum Hardy.
 
I said do you speak a my language
 
He just smiled and gave me
 
a fish paste sandwich
and he said
 
Do you come from the land of Vimto
 
where women groan and men meander
 
Can't you hear, can't you hear my blender
 
full of, full of fruits, cast asunder!
 
Lying in a den in Didsbury
 
with a straw hat and nowt much to say
 
I said to the man are you trying to bore me
 
because I come from the land of Neil Kinnock
and he said
 
Do you come from the land of Vimto
 
where women groan and men meander
 
Can't you hear, can't you hear my blender
 
full of, full of fruits, cast asunder.
