Australia
Once again, from Captain Matchbox Whoopee Band's album Australia:
Australia
M. Conway / D. Flett
Australia, Australia, Australia,
I love you yes I do;
Australia, Australia, Australia,
I wanna hug and kiss you too!
Your virgin bush, I love to roam
Your suburban sprawl, my how it's grown.
Your big red gums, that Australian Bight,
I must invest in you tonight.
Australia, Australia, Australia,
Come on and be my China Plate, cos,
Australia, Australia, Australia,
Australia you're my mate!
Dear Oz, what can I say but,
"I love you!" It seems you're always
Around me, like we'd grown up together.
As I travel your major arteries,
From your bottom, to the tip of
Your Peninsula, I know that I'll always
Be yours. Though some may snigger,
I know that there's no flies on you!
Your outback range,
Your resourceful mine,
I really dig it yet you're so refined,
Give me the good oil,
Give it to me straight,
To put it crudely I don't want to wait!
