Maybe it makes you more intense
When your country's small and you live in tents;
Kurds get gassed, they die to win
Land from Yass to Deniliquin.
Israel - it's the merest sliver,
Fits between Hay and the Murray River;
My map don't show Condamine,
But it's probably bigger than Palestine.
Imagine if old Yassa Arafat
Was given everything south of Ararat
Make the Middle East far less hairy,
And none of us would miss Port Fairy.
[Chorus:]
Australia the worlds suburb
Australia the worlds suburb
Let's solve the whole Arabic mania,
Let's sling 'em all! What's it called?...Tasmania.
Put all of Israel east of Broome -
Double the size we've got the room
But nationalism's so damned myopic
When you're in the atlas but microscopic -
All those guys would rather blow it up
Than move their home to Koo-wee-rup.
Of all nations, the most superb -
Australia - the world's suburb.
New York, London, Paris, Munich fit 'em all in the Mallee District
Solve the Pallestinian question, hundred k's North-East of Preston
New York, London, Paris, Munich fit 'em all in the Mallee District
Solve the Pallestinian question, hundred k's North-East of Preston
(Chorus)(x2)
New York, London, Paris, Munich fit 'em all in the Mallee District
Solve the Pallestinian question, hundred k's North-East of Preston
New York, London, Paris, Munich fit 'em all in the Mallee District
Solve the Pallestinian question, hundred k's North-East of Preston
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Hundred k's North-East of Preston
