Hi, I'm Max, from Ballina.

lyrics

It's weird how the water I used to hate is now exactly what I'm craving. Hi, I'm Max from Ballina: shithouse traveler. Forget grass greener - take me where the irony's sweeter. I am Max from Fenwick Drive; I just wanna feel alive, but I'm always carsick and lethargic.

So gimme a beer with Bordo, and let him sing Khe Sanh. Because the last plane out of Sydney is departing for the promised land. Dredge the bar, raise the banks, there's bullsharks in our backyard tanks. It's raining, I'm complaining again.

In this city, I'm a tiny prawn, swallowed by a giant storm: peel my shit-line, squash my shell, swallow me whole. See you in hell. I never slept on Swift Street. Ghosts of Shirl and Tom, forgive me.

I've been having nightmare every other night. I'm frightend of bogus, faraway shit like ice and suicide. But I don't wanna die - I just wanna lie in a blowup boat on our makeshift moat with my mates all by my side.
