Country In The Concrete

(album: Creatures Of Leisure - 1983)

We don't need to go no further west than Bondi Junction
Bits of country from the rest are here in one form or another

Leave the oceans in the shells
And the beaches in the bricks
Cause they know how to keep
The country in the concrete
Stay up clouds in the sky
Don't you lose your ocean view
They know how to use
The country in the concrete

Put your ear, put your ear
Up to a newspaper
You can hear, you can hear
The forest whispering it's warm in here

Leave the oceans in the shells
And the beaches in the bricks
Cause they know how to keep
The country in the concrete
Stay up clouds in the sky
Don't you lose your ocean view
They know how to use
The country in the concrete

Put your ear, put your ear
Up to a deep freezer
You can hear, you can hear
The sheep in there count themselves into an army

We don't need to go no further west than Bondi Junction
Bits of country from the rest are here in one form or another

Leave the oceans in the shells
And the beaches in the bricks
Cause they know how to keep
The country in the concrete
Stay up clouds in the sky
Don't you lose your ocean view
They know how to use
The country in the concrete

Put your ear, put your ear
Up to a newspaper
You can hear, you can hear
The forest whispering it's warm in here

We don't need to go no further west than Bondi Junction
Bits of country from the rest are here in one form or another
