"Down Under" by Men At Work

"Travelling in a fried-out combie,
On a hippie trail, head full of zombie,
I met a strange lady, she made me nervous,
She took me in and gave me breakfast,
And she said...

'Do you come from a land down-under?
Where women glow and men plunder,
Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder,
You better fun, you better take cover.'

Buying bread from a man in Brussels,
He was six-foot-four and full of muscles,
I said 'Do you speak my language?'
He just smiled and gave me a Vegemite sandwich,
And he said...

'I come from a land down-under,
Where beer does flow and men chunder,
Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder,
You better run, you better take cover.'

Lying in a den in Bombay,
With a slack jaw and not much to say,
Said to the man 'Are you trying to tempt me?'
Because I come from the land of plenty?
And he said...

'Oh!!!!!!!! Do you come from a land down-under?
Where women glow and men plunder,
Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder,
You better run, you better take cover.'"
