The Club song was devised by Jim Bradshaw and others during the infamous Perth Intervarsity trip in 1964. Based on the Neapolitan classic “Funiculi, Funicula”, the song replaced the resounding refrain “let’s go to the top” with repeated references to self abuse and triumphalism.
The song quickly became a Club favourite and, just as quickly, provided proof to CANFL heavyweights that the ANUAFC was a bunch of undisciplined degenerates.
As a result of repeated requests from the League to not sing the song, it became a symbol of defiance, lustily rendered upon the slightest pretext, and now song on the oval following each win.
The Song of the ANU
(On oval)
This is the song of the ANU
You pull your pud, you pull your pud
This is the song of the ANU
You pull your pud, you pull your pud
Smash it, crash it, bash it on the floor
You jump on it, you stomp on it, you nail it to the wall
You pull, you pull, you pull, you pull, you pull, you pull your pud!
Forty inches on the slack, what do you think of that?
Hey!
(In change rooms)
If I had the wings of an eagle
An a***hole as black as a crow
I’d fly to the top of the goalpost
And s**t on (opposing team) below
Oh Uni, oh Uni, you beauty! (you f**king beauty!)
The glory, the honour, the bliss!
By day time we go out and f**k ‘em all!
By night time we suck on the piss!
