Steve Taylor - Down Under Lyrics




Down under
Ever wonder how you got in?
Down under

Down under

Not to tow the party line
Now he gets to take a sentimental trip
To a prison mine

Ain't no commie plot
I don't lean left or right
I stand on solid rock

We hold this truth
To be as dear to life as bread
People think better
When they don't have a gun at their head

Miko looked around and saw her Seoul on ice
Organized a student parade
Someone told the state police to shoot on sight
And they all obeyed

Down under
Say the word and we will lock you
Down under

Down under
Doctors here will likely shock you
Down under

Down under
Down under
Down under
