Australia


Recorded in Sam's basement on June 6, 2002

I'm going to the Great Australian Bight,
So I can play a digeridoodoodoo.
So I can throw a boomerang,
And ride in the pouch of a kangaroo.

Oh Australia!!!
You are my friend!
Australia!!
The fun will never end.. OHHH!!!
Australia, Australia!!!

(HARMONICA SOLO BY NICK)

Going to the Great Australian Bight,
So I can play a digeridoodoodoo.
So I can be hit by a boomerang,
And ride in the pouch of a kangaroo.

Oooh Canada... (laughter)
Australia!
Oh Canada... No!
Australia!!

Song Info: At a period of time when Gene was unable to participate in band practice due to marching band, Nick and Sam collaborated on several songs, two of which are on the album Sheby Dengos. The first of which was Australia, a goofy song about the largest island in the world. The song was never intended as an official album track, but it was too entertaining to just be a demo. The mentioning of Canada in the second chorus was an accident, which explains the laughter. It's a happy fun family song.

Go Back!
