lyrics

Volcano it is smoking
Like a Russian merchant sailor
No off the peg, my inside leg's
With Jerico the tailor
There's talk of evacuation
Big ship in the harbour
TV crews are coming through
In boatloads by the hour

Mongoola Bay
No work, all play

Volcano it is rumblin
Echoes deep and long
The band to play Strauss all day
Have packed it in mid song
Emil the pusher heads for
His speedboat at the quay
With his nieces and the chief of police's
Wife for company

Mongoola Bay
No work, all play

Mongoola Bay
No work, all play

Let's dance the night away
Even the monkeys and the palm trees
Learn to sway

Volcano it is spouting
Panic's on for real
Riot! Wartime on the shoreline
Police wear hats of steel
Big ship it is listing
People trampled on the ground
A little plop, volcano stops
And gulps its flames back down

Mongoola Bay
No work, all play

Mongoola Bay
No work, all play

Mongoola Bay
No work, all play
