The Lyrics

After reading Mike Pacholek's lovely parody about Summertime for Santa, I got a bit homesick, and jotted this down...
I miss my vegemite Christmas
Home to Australia I should go
Where the heat is stinkin'
And Santa's drinkin'
Cans of Fourex in a row

I miss my vegemite Christmas
With barbies burning thru the night
If someone would pay for my flight
I would be a happy vege-mite!

(He wants a vegemite Christmas
With sun and flies and water fights!)
Why I'm not Down Undrin'
I'm surely wondrin'
Without my folks it's not right..

I miss my vegemite Christmas
With Yuletide cockatoos in flight
I can't go..my wallet's too tight
I'm a homesick little vege-mite!

How to speak Australian! "Kristof" = Parodist! ... "It's bloody hot in here, so take off all yer clothes!" = Merry Christmas! ... "Fosters" = Australian for beer!

Vegemite...bleah. I had a boy friend (not a boyfriend) who loved it. He tried to get me to love it too. Hence the reason he was just a boy friend.

Nice job, though!! =)

Oh, so that's why Arwen won't go out with me. And here I thought it was the 2,000 miles between New Jersey and Wyoming, or maybe her LOTR obsession.

Great job, Kristof, 555. My wife and I stayed at a bed and breakfast in New Hampshire this past autumn ... the b & b was run by an Aussie who had a jar of Vegemite in the kitchen. I had always been curious about it, so I asked if I could put some on my toast at breakfast, and he was more than happy to oblige! So, I slathered that shiny brown stuff all over my toast, bit into it, and was pleasantly surprised - I discovered I like Vegemite! Rather salty, but all in all a refreshing change from the usual sugary-sweet marmalades and preserves one usually associates with breakfast.

Vegemite is disgusting, Stuart. That is what I'm saying. Although, I have to ask...have you ever done a tim tam slam?
Stuart McArthur - December 26, 2004 - Report this comment
Miss Arwen, I do believe you're trying to seduce me...
Arwen - December 27, 2004 - Report this comment
No seriously...do you know what I'm talking about? A tim tam slam?
Stuart McArthur - December 27, 2004 - Report this comment
yes Arwen - when you cut off both ends of a tim-tam (Australia's most indulgent biscuit treat - #1 most missed item of Aussie ex-pats....#2 = vegemite) and you use it as a straw for sucking up coffee....then when you finish your coffee you eat the tim tam which melts in your mouth sublimely

My Vegemite loving friend taught me to do it with hot chocolate...but yeah...that's the ticket. While I wasn't a fan of the mess...they were quite tasty...Nice call, Stuart. We DO have something in common!
Stuart McArthur - December 27, 2004 - Report this comment
we can do it with hot chocolate if you like
- no problem there, Arwen ;-)
Arwen - December 27, 2004 - Report this comment
I don't know HOW I missed it...but I just NOW saw your comment, Mr. Pacholek. Don't try to blame our lack of a hook up on me...or on the vegemite. I've been batting my eyes at you like a horsefly flew into one of them...but to no avail...

And Stuart...um...what exactly are you proposing we "do" with hot chocolate? (I fear your mind may have wandered a bit.)
Stuart McArthur - December 27, 2004 - Report this comment
duh!.... the tim tam slam, of course!....it was your idea, remember!

sheesh, sometimes your mind gets a little too raunchy for innocents like myself, Arwen

McArthur and the Elf...get a room for Chrissakes. I'll supply the Tim Tams (which, btw, I have to buy imported for about $AUS10.00 a pack!)...Mike; good to see you're up on your Ockerology...Ash: Of course!! Luvverly....Al: It is, but I still miss it...Troy, Azza and Nazza: Get a coupla stubbies in for us!! JD: Honorary Aussie!! Thanx all

Never tried vegemite, one of the things I need to do to make my life complete (PS: good song!)
Arwen - December 28, 2004 - Report this comment
Kristof...we don't need to get a room...honestly! We're talking about tim tam slams! What kind of a girl do you take me for?
Kristof Robertson - December 28, 2004 - Report this comment
Arwen...OF COURSE I meant a room designated for the consumption of hot beverages and chocolate biscuits...it can get kinda messy and you don't want to go mussin' up your own habitations...:-)
Stuart McArthur - December 28, 2004 - Report this comment
Arwen, I don't know about you, but I think Kristof's just trying to cover the fact that his mind is in the gutter - I, like you, am outraged at his behaviour....

Chucky, we need to talk....
