The Outback Song

A new R.A.T.S. theme song, penned by John Andrews (jandrews@uic.edu):

The Outback
(Sung to Barry Manilow's song Copacabana)

Her name was Bobbie, once was a call girl
With red color in hair and a dress cut down to there
She thought she could be a Mata Hari,
But when she tried to get some news,
Tony always felt abused.
On the OR floor, he worked from 8 til 4
They were young and they had each other
Who could ask for more?

At the Outback, Port Charles Outback,
A local dive that belongs to Mac.
At the Outback, Port Charles Outback,
Music and passion were always in fashion
At the Outback, they were in love.

His name was Damian.  He was a con man,
He was escorted to his chair, he saw Bobbie talking there
And when she finished, he called her over,
But Damian went a bit to far,
Tony came into the bar
And then the punches flew and chairs were smashed in two
There was blood and a single punch thrown,
But just who hit who?

At the Outback, Port Charles Outback,
A local dive that belongs to Mac.
At the Outback, Port Charles Outback,
Music and passion were always in fashion
At the Outback, she lost her love.

Outback..Port Charles Outback..music and passion were always the fashion..
Her name was Bobbie, she was the head nurse
But that was in another day, before Clinton had his way.
Now it's an HMO, but not for Bobbie,
Still in the dress she used to wear,
Faded red dye in her hair.
She sits there so refined, and drinks herself half-blind.
She lost her child, and she lost her Tony,
Now she's lost her mind!

At the Outback, Port Charles Outback,
A local dive that belongs to Mac.
At the Outback, Port Charles Outback,
Music and passion were always in fashion
At the Outback, ...
