Lyrics:

Play the halls,
See the stalls tonight.
Open roads the like,
Across the dateline change will never strike.

Australia lies ahead
Australia, we head for the mainland,
Clutching our gifts from the East.
Only to find out.

Planes and the highways.
Strain the paths and the by-ways.
Remain, still it's leading me,
Closer to you.

Australia, we're leaving you behind.
Australia, we're taking the easy way out,
From now on.
'Come to Australia' can't
Get away from ya still
'Come to Australia we'll take good care of ya''

Australia you save your
Face while fashions slip,
Australia you're balanced between
The powers' tightening grip.
I've been to Australia it's
A long way for ya still
'Go via Australia they'll take good care of ya''
