Down under
Traveling in a fried-out kombi
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
Buying bread from a man in Brussels
He was six foot four and full of muscle
I said, "Do you speak-a my language?"
He just smiled and gave me a Vegemite sandwich
And he 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
Down under
Down under
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 (yeah)
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, "Oh, you come from a land down under (ooh, yeah-yeah)
Where women glow and men plunder" (ah)
Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder?
Oh, you better run, you better take cover
We're the men from a land down under
Where women glow and men plunder (yeah)
Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder? (Thunder)
You better run, you better take cover
We say, "Oh, do you come from a land down under? (Ooh, 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
(We are) livin' in a land down under
Where women glow and men plunder
Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder? (Can't you hear thunder?)
You better run, you better take cover
Livin' in a land down under
Where women glow and men plunder
Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder? (Ooh, yeah)
You better run, you better take cover
Livin' in a land down under (ooh, yeah)
Where women glow and men plunder
Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder? (Thunder, thunder)
You better run, you better take cover
Livin' in a land down under (livin' 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
You better run, you better take cover
