Down Under Song Lyrics - Men at Work


Lyrics


Fantastic, this next song is coming out very soon

It's five minutes, perhaps even longer

It's a song about a place that we all come from

Oh, look out, Australians in the audience

Yes, I thought as much

Filthy and two podium people in the audience

This is a song called- anyone know what this song's called?

(What's it called) maybe you do know what it's called

It's called, it's called

I think that this is a pretty good town

They call this place the Big Apple, right?

(Why is that?) what does that make all you?

Not apples, worms! That's right

Anyway, we feel at home with all people, we're worms too, you know

I reckon if they haven't got the tape together now

It's all happening, okay, without further ado, it's on the show

Traveling in a fried-out Kombi

On a hippie trail, head full of zombie

I met a strange lady, she made me real nervous

She took me in and gave me breakfast

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 run, you better take cover"

Buying bread from a man in Brussels

Six foot four, full of muscle

I said, "Hey, do you speak-a my language, buck?"

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, better run, you better take cover"

Get down

Lying in a den in Bombay

With a slack jaw, and not much to say

I said to the man, "Are you trying to tempt me?

Because I come from the land of plenty"

And he said:

"Do you come from a land down under, oh yeah, yeah

Where women glow and men plunder?

Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder?

You better run, you better take cover

Living in 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

Now you try it, 'cause we are

Living in 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

Just once more, c'mon, for me

Living in 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

Oh don't stop now, 'cause we are

Living in 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

Living in 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

'Cause we are living in a land down under

Where women glow and men plunder

Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder?

You better, better run, you better take cover

A big hand for Big Han, he plays the flute

And he's also so cute

Hey, he's my best friend!

Not accepting this
