Albo shall go..Lambie too.! 
There are some camps lying idle
I hear we need a digital zoo?
So don't come the 'raw prawn'
Now Australians ! what say you.?

Australians must have to hang onto things
Obviouly they'll float around in space without wings
Though cheaper than airfare
It's damn cold up there
But the washroom is spacious, just let 'er fling...

Xerothermic in December
Many Australians remember
A chilly Christmas clime.
So they choose a time,
In winter the feast to eat!
Nativity turkey and meat, 
July our heart inspires -
Umbrellas and log fires,
Love of pudding and pie,
Yuletide in July....

Australians all let us raise our voice
For we were young and free
This makes my blood boil on my own soil
Our home is encircled by airlines 
Our land abounds with political gits
Of no beauty, or rarity
In history's page let every stage
Advance Australia unfair....

Sea
Sanguine
Surprises
Australians.
A rare phenomena caused by algae

the world just ended today
no more income tax to pay
no more unsightly social ills
we just skipped out on our bills
we finally got those terrorists
hiding in the murky mists
we showed our science is really tops
we proved our popcorn really pops 
we wiped out the Australians
and impressed those little gray aliens...

dainty painted lady butterfly
Australians claim you but so do I
your lively looks, your delicate way
enhances my garden on this Tuesday

delicate painted lady, your browns and white
bring me joy and happiness, loads of delight
Your spotted wings so symmetrical and fair
I love seeing you as you fly off into the air...

So the earth is flat
I hear is you say
Look to the horizon 
There is no curve

And the Australians you meet
Are all paid actors the trick is complete
Those pictures from space
Well they are a disgrace 

If the earth was round 
You’d see planes disappear 
So don’t waste your time
The globe Hitler had in his study
Was a Nazi plot.

Manning the walls of our homeland 
Standing tall at our country’s command
Trained and ready to carry their foil
At Christmas time so far from our soil
We honour them for what they do
True blue Australians through and through
Families at home support them all
Sad to be apart during their call
Shed a tear while you’re apart
For greater joy when returning in our hearts.

IMMIGRATION.

Are migrants proud Australians?
Our nation based on immigration,
One polyglot meld of humanity,
To Australia, show fidelity.
Our nation of peaceful tolerance,
People from Earth's shifting sands,
Living here in Great Southern Land,
Deployment should not be our dance,
Nothing wrong with loyalty,
Patriotism our children's legacy,
--Great Southern Land,
All welcome to be Australians!...

It’s the hot north wind in your face
The dust and dirt of the Outback place
It’s the gathering against the fire storm
The larrikin smile that is the norm

It’s knowing that when troubles comes
Everyone’s shoulder to the wheel is how it’s done
For the wide brown land can be a chore
That makes you love it even more

Australia is tough but sweet
Living here makes life complete 
And when my day is finally done
I’ll lie under a gum tree in the Australian sun.
