[Verse 1]
Here in Australia, we're still doin' fine
Or at least we are, most of the time
The birds still sing and the sun still shines
Down on the lucky country
Most Australian families
Own a car, a house, and a colour TV
God bless the finance company
For givin' us the money
Though one day we'll have to pay it back
But don't you worry about that
[Verse 2]
Here in Australia we're still ok
Though the damn recession won't go away
There's a million out of work they say
And the queues keep gettin' longer
It's the kids who suffer most of all
Straight from school onto the dole
But at least inflation's under control
Good news for overseas bankers
Our children's future's lookin' black
But don't your worry about that
[Chorus]
I'm a stranger here, I'm a stranger here
This used to be my home, now I'm a stranger here
Here in Australia, we're still doin' fine
Or at least we are, most of the time
The birds still sing and the sun still shines
Down on the lucky country
Most Australian families
Own a car, a house, and a colour TV
God bless the finance company
For givin' us the money
Though one day we'll have to pay it back
But don't you worry about that
[Verse 2]
Here in Australia we're still ok
Though the damn recession won't go away
There's a million out of work they say
And the queues keep gettin' longer
It's the kids who suffer most of all
Straight from school onto the dole
But at least inflation's under control
Good news for overseas bankers
Our children's future's lookin' black
But don't your worry about that
[Chorus]
I'm a stranger here, I'm a stranger here
This used to be my home, now I'm a stranger here
