about

Perth politico punks Last Quokka have emerged from isolation with their new single Wake Up Geoff, the last to be taken off their upcoming fourth album unconscious drivers to be released in August 2020 via Stock Records and Mass Prod (FR).

Wake Up Geoff sees the band return to their piss-taking, but well meaning origins. The fast-paced punk anthem is a bit of a love song for former WA premier Geoff Gallop. Done in typical Quokka style with catchy guitar riffs and a heavy driving beat, the result is an absurd serenade to Geoff "we're not saying he's such a great guy, but compared to these other pricks he's alright" Gallop.

lyrics

Where'd ya go?
Geoff
Where'd ya go?
Geoff Gallop
Where'd ya go?
Geoff
Where'd ya go?
Geoff Gallop
Geoff Gallop

Geoff Gallop back into my heart

Where'd ya go?
Geoff
Where'd ya go?
Geoff Gallop

Where'd ya go?
Climate change
Where'd ya go?
Marijuana
Where'd ya go?
Geoff
Where'd ya go?
Geoff Gallop
Geoff Gallop

Geoff Gallop back into my heart
Geoff Gallop back into my heart

Elected to Australian parliament in 2001 a landslide victory
Yeah that was alright
First government on earth to acknowledge climate change
Yeah nice one boys
Decriminalised marijuana so we could all smoke some bongs
Yeah nice one girls
Yeah look we're not saying he's such a great guy
But compared to these other pricks he's alright

Geoff Gallop back into my heart
Geoff Gallop back into my heart
