Down Under
PelleK Lyrics

Traveling in a fried-out combie On a hippie trail head full of zombie
I was on a run-down old van, on a journey that felt like an aimless wander. My mind was empty and distant from reality

I met a strange lady, she made me nervous And she took me in and gave me breakfast
I encountered a peculiar woman who gave me an uncomfortable feeling, but her hospitality was warm and welcoming

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"
The lady asked if I was from Australia, where everything glows and is magnificent, but dangerous events may occur so it's better to run and hide

Buying bread from a man in Brussels He was six foot four and full of muscle I said, "Do you speak my language?" He just smiled and gave me a Vegemite sandwich
I purchased bread from a burly man in the city. I asked if he understood me and he just gave me a strange sandwich made of yeast extract

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", yeah
The man said he is from Australia, where beer flows freely and men vomit. He cautioned me about the thunder and advised to take cover

Dying 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?"
I was dying in a room with nothing to say. I asked the man if he's trying to lure me in, because I am from a place of abundance

And he said, "Oh, 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?" (Oh) "You better run, you better take cover"
The man mocked me, implying that I come from Australia, where everything is the opposite of what is promised. He warned me about the thunder and threatened me to run and hide

'Cause we are livin' in a land down under Where women glow and men plunder (Yeah) Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder? (Thunder) You better run, you better take cover
We are residing in Australia, where women are radiant and men steal. And there's the constant thunderous noise that signals danger, we must run and hide

Livin' in a land down under Where women glow and men plunder Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder? (Ooh yeah) Then I run and then I take cover (Yeah)
Living in Australia, where women shine and men steal. And when the thunder sounds, I run and hide

We are livin' in a land down under Where women glow and men plunder Can't you, can't you hear the thunder? Then I run then I take cover
We dwell in Australia, where women shine and men steal, and the thunder alerts us to take cover and seek refuge

Livin' in a land down under (Livin' in a land down under)
Existing in and adapting to life in Australia
