The Arrogant Worms

A Night On Dildo

Umm, so this is a song about Newfoundland and we wrote it about the place names and all you have to know is that all the place names in this song are real place names that we found in an atlas, 'cause we can read!

Yeah, we can read!

Yeah, literacy!

Oh Newfoundland, oh Newfoundland, ya island in the sea

I love you oh so very much, I joined the Ministry

To show you people 'round the rock when tourist season's here

Although in my opinion it' s a gem throughout the year

Well if you're one for swimming, don't think it's outta reach

You can go and take a dip along Groswater Beach

I know the name's misleading, that's quite a problem here

Instead let's go to Goobies and have ourselves a beer

From Woody Point to Come-By-Chance to good ol' Ferryland

Come take a look at Gander, Blackhead's mighty grand

Don't let the names deceive you, Newfoundland's mighty fine

So spend a night on Dildo if you think you've got the time

Well you can go to Blow-Me-Down before it get's to dark (GASP)

Oh sorry ma'am, I should have said, that's our provincial park

There's also Whippet Harbour, or maybe Butter Pot

Or maybe I'll just hit the pub I'm feeling like a shot

Well you can sail on Quidi Vidi, or look at Joe Batt's Arm

There's Placentia and there's Cow Head (MOOO!), they're so full of charm

Get married down in Kilbride, have a party in Hate Bay

Or have some screech in Fogo and forget about the day

From Woody Point to Come-By-Chance to good ol' Ferryland

Come take a look at Gander, Blackhead's mighty grand

Don't let the names deceive you, Newfoundland's mighty fine

So spend a night on Dildo if you think you've got the time

Okay, the Drinkin' Verse

From Woody Point to Come-By-Chance to good ol' Ferryland

Come take a look at Gander, Blackhead's mighty grand

Don't let the names deceive you, Newfoundland's mighty fine

So spend a night on Dildo if you think you've got the time

COD!
