about

with apologies to James Joyce

lyrics

Used to score out by Frankston beach/
Behind the showers got a gram a-piece/
But suburbs change, and so do we/
I now pay twelve bucks for a cup of tea/

If you tidy up the apartment blocks/
And start turf wars over kebab shops/
I could write my own version of Ulysses/
Cause living here is an Odyssey/

So let the sun beat down on me/
Odyssius the brave has nothing on thee/
And Police cars wail in the land of the free/
To catch the Sirens of Frankston Beach/

A jogger kicks up sand when will they learn/
But there's nothing to fear haven't you heard/
The council cleaned up the bay, ain't it so/
They picked up all the needles years ago/

about

The Frankston Philosophical Society image

The Frankston Philosophical Society Frankston, Australia

The ethos of the Frankston Philosophical Society: pretend to be profound while simultaneously saying very little at all.

Some call them audacious, bold, or even genius. Their parents just wish they would move out of home.
