Give Up For Australia

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".

I saw his body thrashing round
I saw his pulse rate going down
I saw him in convulsive throws
I said I'll ahve one of those!
