On my rockin' bicycle that's built for two




ROCKIN’ BICYCLE LYRICS

Sung by Fats Domino (1961)

Ain’t got a Cadillac or big old De Ville
I’m just a little guy not a big tyre wheel
But I can prove my love is true
On my rockin’ bicycle that’s built for two

We don’t care if we live out of date
We don’t care if we’re a little bit late
Gonna make the scene baby me and you
On my rockin’ bicycle that’s built for two

We don’t care, we don’t mind
If we don’t be in front, we be a-right behind

We don’t care if they laugh at us
Let ‘em take the bus and leave the cycle for us
They can have a Cadillac and T-bird too
But gimme my rockin’ bicycle for two

Ain’t got a Cadillac or big old De Ville
I’m just a little guy not a big tyre wheel
But I can prove my love is true
On my rockin’ bicycle that’s built for two

We don’t care if we live out of date
We don’t care if we’re a little bit late
Gonna make the scene baby me and you
On my rockin’ bicycle that’s built for two

We don’t care, we don’t mind
If we don’t be in front, we be a-right behind

We don’t care if they laugh at us
Let ‘em take the bus and leave the cycle to us
They can have the Cadillac and T-bird too
But gimmer my rockin’ bicycle for two

Songwriters: Pee Wee Maddux, Antoine Domino, & Jack Jessup

Flaws in the Glass, a self-portrait by Patrick White: book review

The manuscript, Flaws in the Glass (1981), is Patrick Victor Martindale White’s autobiography. White, born in 1912 in England, migrated to Sydney, Australia, when he was six months old. For three years, at the age of 20, he studied French and German literature at King’s College at the University of Cambridge in England. Throughout his life, he published 12 novels. In 1957 he won the inaugural Miles Franklin Literary Award for Voss, published in 1956. In 1961, Riders in the Chariot became a best-seller, winning the Miles Franklin Literary Award. In 1973, he was the first Australian author to be awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature for The Eye of the Storm, despite many critics describing his works as ‘un-Australian’ and himself as ‘Australia’s most unreadable novelist.’ In 1979, The Twyborn Affair was short-listed for the Booker Prize, but he withdrew it from the competition to give younger writers the opportunity to win the award. His autobiography, Flaws in the Glass...

Sister cities discussed: Canberra and Islamabad

Two months ago, in March 2015, Australia and Pakistan agreed to explore ways to deepen ties. The relationship between Australia and Pakistan has been strong for decades, and the two countries continue to keep dialogues open. The annual bilateral discussions were held in Australia in March to continue engagements on a wide range of matters of mutual interest. The Pakistan delegation discussed points of interest will include sports, agriculture, economic growth, trade, border protection, business, and education. The possible twinning of the cities of Canberra, the capital of Australia, and Islamabad, the capital of Pakistan, were also on the agenda (i.e. called twin towns or sister cities). Sister City relationships are twinning arrangements that build friendships as well as government, business, culture, and community linkages. Canberra currently has international Sister City relationships with Beijing in China and Nara in Japan. One example of existing...
