Lyrics
(Verse 1)
Well, let me tell ya 'bout a bloke named Murray, known as Pinner,
Lives in Flinstone, can't catch a fish, can't bag a dinner.
He's a top-notch mate, a real good guy,
But when it comes to huntin' and fishin', he just can't get by.
(Chorus)
Oh Pinner, Pinner, you’re a laugh and a half,
Tryin' to catch a trout, you might as well chase a giraffe!
Out in the bush, you're all heart but no skill,
But we love ya, mate, even if ya never get a kill.
(Verse 2)
He heads out to the lake with his gear all set,
But the fish just laugh, say, "Is that all we get?"
His bait's all wrong, his hook's upside down,
He's the biggest joke in this whole damn town.
(Chorus)
Oh Pinner, Pinner, you’re a laugh and a half,
Tryin' to catch a trout, you might as well chase a giraffe!
Out in the bush, you're all heart but no skill,
But we love ya, mate, even if ya never get a kill.
(Bridge)
Now Pinner doesn't drive a Landcruiser, that's a fact,
But he's still our mate, we always got his back.
In his old beat-up ute, he gives it a go,
And we take the piss, but he takes it real slow.
(Verse 3)
One time he thought he'd bring home a deer,
Came back with a story and a six-pack of beer.
"Mate," we said, "you’re a legend in your own right,
Can't shoot, can't fish, but you're a bloody delight!"
(Chorus)
Oh Pinner, Pinner, you’re a laugh and a half,
Tryin' to catch a trout, you might as well chase a giraffe!
Out in the bush, you're all heart but no skill,
But we love ya, mate, even if ya never get a kill.
(Outro)
So here's to Pinner, our hopeless hero,
With a heart of gold, but skills near zero.
We raise a glass, and give a cheer,
To the best damn bloke, even if he can't hunt a deer!
