Country in the Concrete Songtext
von Mental as Anything

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 lose
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 lose
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
