lyrics

Charlie’s Chook House 9am; there's a rain gauge that needs measuring
There's a smell of books and magazines with spines that read 1950s
And you're the chief chook of this special lair with a warm chuckle behind facial hair
And so much to share

Measuring the clouds, such a beautiful thing to do
You've always loved me, and I love you

From the goldfields, all around the state, you helped the public communicate
First with telegrams, then telephones, weather forecasts, then you made a home
When you settled down, pumped out one then two, so here I am loving you
Now I too am

Measuring the clouds, such a beautiful thing to do
You've always loved me, and I love you
Measuring the clouds, such a beautiful thing to do
You've always loved me, and I love you
