Lyrics
Verse 1
I left my guts on the salad bar at Sizzler
And my dignity got traded with the coupons
To the arsehole behind the register
I've done the unlimited cold turkey
From the beach to the inland shit-hole
And only other fat fucks who lived it could get it
Chorus
The last Sizzler in Australia's almost gone
Yeah the last Sizzler in Australia's almost gone
And it's really got me fucked
I'm going nowhere and I'm in a hurry
'Cause the last Sizzler in Australia's dead and gone
Verse 2
About the long-forgotten "all you can eat" promises
How there were no heroes when Collins killed it in 2020
How we rolled up in the car park
Saw an old mate but couldn't root her
She was queueing for the cheese bread and I was back in the lucky country
Chorus
The last Sizzler in Australia's almost gone
Yeah the last Sizzler in Australia's almost gone
And it's really got me fucked
I'm going nowhere and I'm in a hurry
'Cause the last Sizzler in Australia's dead and gone
Verse 3
Well she was like every other moll from back then
Their lives were empty as a Monday lunch shift
Till they found some poor bastard
And their legs stayed wide open
But their brains stayed locked shut
And their hearts stayed stuck in the same shit suburb forever
Chorus
The last Sizzler in Australia's almost gone
Yeah the last Sizzler in Australia's almost gone
And it's really got me fucked
I'm going nowhere and I'm in a hurry
'Cause the last Sizzler in Australia's dead and gone
Verse 4
And the plastic trays were sticky
Shifts were long, wages were dogshit
And the sneeze guards rattled
Where the decent steakhouses used to stand
But the car parks still made me twitchy
And the dreams never fucking stopped
Or the need for a line and a handful of pills
Piano solo
Verse 5
So I drifted every state end to end
Tried to find somewhere to stop being a mess
Where the gut rot might settle
Took a job on a drilling rig
Flew choppers when the boss was pissed
But the nights still sent me round the twist
Chorus
The last Sizzler in Australia's almost gone
Yeah the last Sizzler in Australia's almost gone
And it's really got me fucked
I'm going nowhere and I'm in a hurry
'Cause the last Sizzler in Australia's dead and gone
Verse 6
And I've pissed about the planet year after year
Every one left me more useless
One more year further down the toilet
I've been back through Asia looking for something
But the answer sure as hell ain't there
So I'm drifting north again just to see if it still hurts
Chorus
The last Sizzler in Australia's almost gone
Yeah the last Sizzler in Australia's almost gone
And it's really got me fucked
I'm going nowhere and I'm in a hurry
'Cause the last Sizzler in Australia's dead and gone
Verse 7
You know the last Sizzler in the country's almost gone
Seven hours on a plane and I'll be somewhere that still has one
There ain't nothing like a greasy root
From some half-cut tourist princess
I'm gonna flatten a cheap mattress all night long
[Final Chorus] (yell it)
The last Sizzler in Australia's almost gone
Yeah the last Sizzler in Australia's almost gone
And it's really got me fucked
I'm going nowhere and I'm in a hurry
'Cause the last Sizzler in Australia's dead and gone
Miss that cheese bread, ya cunts.
