Land down under!

Pois é pessoal, essa música é bem antiguinha, lá pelos idos de 82 ou 83 , mas como só a descobri agora! Sapeando pela internet , de vez em quando a gente acha algo que preste! Na realidadade a banda Man at work é australiana, mas a letra da música satiriza essa coisa de colonização européia , de cutura superior a outra , mas de uma forma muito , mas muito engraçada!
O som é show.
Quem quiser escutar o link do you tube é o seguinte:

Traveling in a fried-out combie
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
And 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
He was six foot four and full of muscles
I said, "Do you speak-a my language?"
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 run, you better take cover."

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! 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."
