Traveling in a fried-out Kombi
On a hippie trail, head full of zombie

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

He just smiled and gave me a vegemite sandwich
And he said

Where beer does flow and men chunder

You better run, you better take cover, yeah

Because I come from the land of plenty?"
And he said, oh

Where women glow and men plunder?
Can''t you hear, can''t you hear the thunder?
You better run, you better take cover (''cause we are)
