Tism - Give Up For Australia lyrics

rate me

May all our young Aussie swimmers

Be resigned to failure;

May all out T.V. stations

Be like other nations' -

"Give up! Give up! Give up! for Australia."

May Timorese fishermen

Evade the Aussie sailor;

May we do as history teaches -

Die on Middle Eastern beaches -

"Give up! Give up! Give up! for Australia."

May this nation's flag

Carry another's regalia;

May our nation state

Be always second rate -

"Give up! Give up! Give up! for Australia".

We produce a Norman May

Not a Norman Mailer;

May this land's vast distance

Always treat us with indifference -

"Give up! Give up! Give up! for Australia".
