"Down Under" lyrics

"Down Under"

Down under is forever and a day
Down under is forever and a day

Koala bears get livid when they don't eat eucalyptus
Most of them carry syphilis
Or chlamydia, what's the difference?
All I know is I don't want no koala cuddlin' up to me
I can see it fine from here, it's a pretty cute koala

Down under is forever and a day
Down under is forever and a day

Kangaroos can whoop up on ya
They'd rather fight than watch ya
I know they look tame and dainty, but I'll tell ya now, ya oughta
Take some care because they're deer
Evolved to better boxers
They don't take to whisperin' nothings
They'd punch a crowdin' talker

Down under is forever and a day
It ain't no wonder why more folks don't find the time
'Cause it takes time to get down under
Things out there can kill ya
From the critters to the thunder
It's been forever and a day since I have been down under

Down under is forever and a day
Down under is forever and a day

There's always somethin' thrilling
To get your heart a-racin'
No shit I've had the notion
But that ain't what I'm chasin'
And life is more than treasure born
From sense, and light, and pleasure
And I would not take a thing
From my journey out under

Vegemite and flying kites the opposite way
With crocodilian convicts
And the criminally insane

Down under is forever and a day
It ain't no wonder why more folks don't find the time
'Cause it takes time to get down under
Things out there can kill ya worse
Than critters and the thunder
It's been forever and a day since I have been down under

Down under is forever and a day
Down under is forever and a day
Down under is forever and a day
Down under is forever and a day

Forever and a day
Forever and a day
Forever and a day
Forever and a day
Forever and a day
Forever and a day
