Newcastle Song

Yes up in Newcastle
They have very strange mating habits
All the young women of Newcastle
Walk down the main street
Which is called Hunter Street
For reasons that will become obvious
Later on in the song.
All the young men of Newcastle
Drive down Hunter Street
In their hot FJ holdens
with chrome plated grease nipples
and double reverse overhead twin cam door handles
Sitting eight abreast the front seat
And they lean out the window
and say real cool things
To the sheilas on the foot path
like: "ahhh g'day"
And every now and then of course
one of the young ladies thinks to herself
"Ummmm" she thinks, "ummmmm"

Don't you ever let a chance go by oh lord don't you ever let a chance go by.

Anyway there was the mob of blokes
Driving down Hunter Street
In the front seat of the hot FJ
with chrome plated grease nipples
And twin overhead fox tails
And the coolest of them all
Who got to sit near the window
Was young Norm.
And they pulled up otside the Parthenon milkbar
And standing outside the partenon
Was this beautiful sheila
"ooh! Ohhh!" said young Norm
Who'd come top in his class in Englilsh,
"Ohhh!" he said. So he leaned out the window
And he said, real suave like he said
"G'day". This nine foot Hell's Angle
Came out of the Parthenon milk bar
Looked at Normie and said "Arrr, what are ya?"
Norm said "What are you?" Bloke on the footpath said:
"D'ya want a go, do ya, mate? eh?"
Norm said "Yeah, d'you want a go mate?"
Bloke on the footpath said "Yeah, I'll have a go"
Norm said "Do you know who you're picking?"
Bloke on the footpath said "Nah, who am I picking?"
Norm said. "Find out"
And all of a sudden
There was a break in the traffic
And as any young Newcastle lad knows
When you're being molested
By a nine foot tall Hell's Angel
And there's a break in the traffic

Don't you ever let a chance go by oh lord don't you ever let a chance go by.

There's a post here from April this year, asking about the lyrics to Australia's infamous 'The Newcastle Song'. I stumbled upon it while searching for the lyrics.

Thing is, the people who replied to the post only gave the first verse; a friend has the full-length thirteen minute song and it has about triple the lyrics given.

Not only that, but nowhere else on the internet appears to have the full lyrics.

Anyone know why, or, better yet, have the rest of the lyrics? I plan to make a video with that as a soundtrack for a school assessment task, but I need the lyrics in order to create my storyboard.

Thanks!
