Down Under
Dj Mind X Feat Men at Work Lyrics

Traveling in a fried-out Kombi On a hippie trail, head full of zombie
I am driving in a rundown Volkswagen van on a trip of exploration, my mind being fogged by my previous recreational activities

I met a strange lady, she made me nervous She took me in and gave me breakfast And she said
I encountered an odd woman who made me feel uneasy, but she kindly allowed me to stay the night and fed me breakfast the next morning

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
Asking if I come from Australia, a place with beautiful and strong women, and reckless men. Warning that there is danger ahead and I should flee

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 purchased bread from a large man in Belgium, and asked if he spoke my language. He responded with a smile and a traditional Australian sandwich made with Vegemite

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
Explaining that I am from Australia, well known for our love of beer and for the tendency of men to be sick after excessive consumption. Once again, warning of impending danger and urging me to escape

Lyin' 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
Recounting a time spent resting in a room in Mumbai and feeling unable to speak. I asked the man present if he was attempting to lead me astray, as I come from a prosperous land

Oh, 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 ('cause we are)
Returning to the original theme of questioning if I am from Australia, where there are beautiful women and reckless men. Reiterating the warning of danger ahead, because we are all in danger

Living in a land down under Where women glow and men plunder (Can't you hear thunder) can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder? You better run, you better take cover
Stating that I reside in Australia, where the women are radiant and men are reckless. Urging that danger is approaching and everyone should flee

Living in a land down under Where women glow and men plunder Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder? (Ooh yeah) Better run, you better take cover (we are)
Repeating that I live in Australia and the women are radiant while men tend to be reckless. Reinforcing that danger is near and warning everyone to run

Living in a land down under (ooh yeah) Where women glow and men plunder Can't you, can't you hear the thunder? Better run, you better take cover
Once again, stating that I am from Australia with its glowing women and plundering men, and emphasizing that imminent danger is approaching and everyone should escape
