AUSTRALIANS KEEP TRAVELLING, THEY'RE HARD TO BEAT
BUT WE WANT THEM TO PUT ALL THEIR BUMS ON OUR SEATS
WHILE WE MAKE THEM REDUNDANT WE'LL CONTINUE TO BLEAT
THAT WE STILL CALL AUSTRALIA HOME
WE'VE DONE IT TO CABIN CREW THEY WERE THE FIRST
AND THE MAINTENANCE GUYS - WELL THEY WERE THE WORST
NOW THE GEEKS IN I T ARE ALL COPPING A BURST
IF THEY CALL AUSTRALIA HOME
(the soppy bit...)
ALL THOSE SONS AND DAUGHTERS FIRED FROM THEIR JOBS
ONTO THE DOLE QUEUES WE'VE HURLED
WE'VE TAUGHT THEM A LESSON, (IT'LL DO THEM GOOD)
THAT THEY'RE SCREWED IN THE GLOBAL WORLD
AND SOMEDAY WE'LL ALL BE TOGETHER ONCE MORE
WHEN THE QANTAS HEAD OFFICE IS IN BANGALORE
AND YOU'LL REALISE FINALLY WE'VE ALWAYS BEEN LYING
WHEN WE'LL STILL CALL AUSTRALIA
WAKE UP AUSTRALIA
AUSTRALIA WE'RE NOT COMING HOME
What a brilliant imagination you have, CL!
Oh hang on, you're right.
