[Verse 1: Ron Hitler-Barassi] Maybe it makes you more intense When your country's small and you live in tents Kurds get gassed, they die to win Land from Yass to Deniliquin Israel - it's the merest sliver? Fits between Hay and the Murray River My map don't show Condamine But it's probably bigger than Palestine [Verse 2: Ron Hitler-Barassi] Imagine if old Yasser Arafat Was given everything south of Ararat Make the Middle East far less hairy And none of us would miss Port Fairy [Chorus: Humphrey B. Flaubert] Australia - the world's suburb Australia - the world's suburb [Verse 3: Ron Hitler-Barassi] Let's solve the whole Arabic mania Let's sling 'em all...what's it called... Tasmania! Put all of Israel east of Broome Double the size we've got the room But nationalism's so damn myopic When you're in the atlas but microscopic All those guys they'd rather blow it up Than move their homes to Koo-Wee-Rup Of all nations the most superb Australia - the world's suburb [Pre-Chorus: Humphrey B. Flaubert] New York, London, Paris, Munich Fit 'em all in the Mallee district Solve the Palestinian question Hundred Ks northeast of Preston New York, London, Paris, Munich Fit 'em all in the Mallee district Solve the Palestinian question Hundred Ks northeast of Preston [Solo] [Chorus: Humphrey B. Flaubert] Australia - the world's suburb Australia - the world's suburb Australia - the world's suburb Australia - the world's suburb [Outro: Humphrey B. Flaubert] New York, London, Paris, Munich Fit 'em all in the Mallee district Solve the Palestinian question Hundred Ks northeast of Preston New York, London, Paris, Munich Fit 'em all in the Mallee district Solve the Palestinian question Hundred Ks northeast of Preston Yeah, yeah, yeah! Hundred Ks northeast of Preston!
