Men At Work Down Under

AlphabetLyrics.com

Travelling 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
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 muscle
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.'
