Dave does Eurovision - We Also Wrote A Song
Jazz Emu and Rachel Parris lead channel Dave's officially unofficial tribute to The Eurovision Song Contest and the community that makes it the biggest music competition in the world. "Because if Australia can enter Eurovision, why can't we?"
Lyrics
Eurovision 2023
That's right
We're Jumping On The Bandwagon
(We Also Wrote A Song)
If Australia can take to the stage at Eurovision
Does that mean anyone's welcome too?
Cause at Dave we are tired of facing our televisions
We wanna be a part of the Euro Crew
So we've signed the mandates, we've hired the spandex
Spectacular pyro is poised
Our key changes are primed, and our air grabs are vibing
So let's hope we get some points
Because we have spent
over 95 percent
Of Dave's annual budget
On legally becoming a nation!
So we can enter Eurovision.
We've spent, er, several million
On legal fees, and smoke machines
And pantsuits made of mirrors
We wanna winning entry
So we're putting in plenty
Of pan-European hooks
Which are non-English speaking friendly like
Zayayada, zayayada, oh
We wanna winning entry
So we're putting in every
Single musical genre that's won
Eurovision previously like:
Zayayada, zayayada, zayayada, wind machine
We've seen other countries use traditional national music
To show their rich cultural heritage
So we took all the profits from our other shows and used it
To invent Dave's national instrument
We don't know which country's going to give us the points when we climb up on that stage
So we're hedging our bets by including a phrase in every single EU language
Nous sommes désespérés (we are desperate! french)
Ja me tahame seda võita! (and we want to win it! - estonian)
lo haremos (spanish) parzialmente in fiamme (with our costumes partially on fire!)
