The Narrabeen Hippy

 I wrote this a couple of days ago and yesterday I decided to add an extra verse.

The Narrabeen Hippy


Kevin wondered around the North Shore when he was a foal

He lived on Mullet and sometimes an egg and weed roll

Played his guitar in the garage that was painted yellow

And grew a long beard to disguise his charming glow


He loved the sea, he was a Narrabeen Hippy

All the women loved the Narrabeen Hippy


He drove a Volkswagen which was so cheap to run

You’d sometimes see him burning juice just for fun

The mosquitoes were his friends they loved him dearly

An environmental leader that lived on herbal tea


He loved the sea, he was a Narrabeen Hippy

All the women loved the Narrabeen Hippy


He moved up to the north coast looking for a job

Pretty confident he was better than any hobnob

Ended up on a Fishing Trawler living on prawns

Had to quit and now he’s mowing lawns


He loved the sea, he was a Narrabeen Hippy

All the women loved the Narrabeen Hippy


When Kevin retired he went back to the North Shore

Now Full of Yuppies with no respect for the poor

He found an old mate who invited him for morning tea

A lifeguard that no longer votes for the Liberal party
