Lyrics:

Budleigh, Ommen, Horna Suca
Nightlife hotspots of the future
Venues just don't grow on trees
So we'll take our parties where we please
No city lights, no shopping mall
Just sleeping bags in a village hall
When there's a bigscreen I don't care
If we're stuck at the arse end of nowhere

And I would go to John O' Groats for a demoparty
'Cause I'd rake in the compo votes
at a demoparty in John O' Groats
Watch the fishing boats off the Caithness coast
With a hearty breakfast of porridge oats
When we go to John O' Groats
For a demoparty

The Poo-Brain bus will cruise the earth
From Amsterdam to the Moray Firth
The Danes will save us from collapse
With whisky laced with pepperschnapps
At 2AM we'll party hard
to the bagpipes of the Coldstream Guards
A laser show would do no harm
But it might set off the fire alarm

And I would go to John O' Groats for a demoparty (for a demoparty)
'Cause I'd rake in the compo votes
at a demoparty in John O' Groats (in a village by the sea)
Watch the fishing boats off the Caithness coast (see the fishing boats)
With a hearty breakfast of porridge oats
When we go to John O' Groats...
For a demoparty

Amiga! (Amiga!) Amiga! (Amiga!)
Da ba dum dum da dum dum
Amiga! (Amiga!) Amiga! (Amiga!)
Da ba dum dum da dum dum
Amiga! (Amiga!) Amiga! (Amiga!)
Da ba dum dum da dum dum
Amiga! (Amiga!) Amiga! (Amiga!)
Da ba dum dum da dum dum
