Down under in the outback you wait patiently
There are more sheep than people down under in the outback
So don't wait for me
Back home in the outback you're the one girl I know
But up here in Sydney they come and they go
How daintilly and gaily they skip down the street
And when I look at them I think of you and your size eleven feet
Down under in the outback you wait patiently
There are more sheep than people down under in the outback
So don't wait for me
The boomerang is an Australian device
You sling it away and it's back in a trice
It's harder to lose than a cold in the head
And when I think of it I think of you, and errck, enough said
Down under in the outback you wait patiently
There are more sheep than people down under in the outback
So don't wait for me
The outback is dry and the sun, how it bakes
You're pestered by insects and bitten by snakes
They reckon it's a land that lives under a curse
And when I think of it I think of you, and that makes it worse
Down under in the outback you wait patiently
There are more sheep than people down under in the outback
So don't wait for me
Have a quick look at it will ya - Don't wait for me
It looks like the lasserated lobe of a long lost lizards left lung - Don't wait for me
It's got teeth on it like a Romanian robber's dog - Don't wait for me
[Aa-aa-aa-aa-aa] Dear oh dear - Don't wait for me
A head on it like a Mongolian racing tadpole - Don't wait for me
You're dinner's ready - Sure - Don't wait for me
It's the moustache that worries me - Don't wait for me
Wouldn't it slay ya - Don't wait for me
[Aa-aa-aa-aa-aa] Strike me lucky - Don't wait for me [fade]
