Cross the Yangtze like Mao Zedong when he crawl
I'm at the Wuhan wet market like Shannon Noll
Respect Vladmir Lenin I know he tried hard
So I put my money in the account named Vanguard
My Everyday Rewards are here to stay
It's the Australian way to overpay
But it's worth it if I collect the points I guess
And get ten bucks off for every two grand spent
They jack up the price and they jack up my rent
I'll just blame the banks and the immigrants
Because money is nature and countries are wolves
Why would an economist lie, surely they ain't fools
When I'm living the dream I just get in the way
Content for my masters to lead me astray
Read the words in the paper every day
It's the fault of the East unless I'm there on holiday
With their funny languages and spicy food
I'm just asking questions don't mean to be rude
But can you see as wide as me with your slanted eyes
Hey, don't shoot the messenger I read about it online!
My Everyday Rewards are here to stay
It's the Australian Way to overpay
But it's worth it if I get approved for a loan
Thirty years chained to a husk of brittle stone
They jack up the price and they jack up the rent
I'll just blame the banks and the immigrants
Because money is nature and countries are wolves
Why would an economist lie, surely they ain't fools
You wonder and ruminate on why no one takes Australia seriously
But see nothing wrong with chicken nuggets costing more than a DVD of Crocodile Dundee
If Mad Max is the future count me in
At least then I'll get rewarded for original sin
'Cause Blade Runner's looking more and more likely each day
I didn't pay attention in LOTE so the desert better blow my way
My way or the highway
The great Princess Highway
They jack up the price and they jack up therent
I'll just blame the banks and the immigrants
Because money is nature and countries are wolves
Why would an economist lie, surely they ain't fools
When I'm living the dream I just get in the way
Content for my masters to lead me astray
Read the words in the paper every day
It's the fault of the East unless I'm there on holiday
好好学习天天向上
They told me to hate a place I only knew on a map
So I stumbled through back alleys with a dictionary app
Power cables twisting upward into the night sky
麻将 players with bellies full and eyes wide
Two hundred geriatrics dancing to C+C
Everybody dance now then time for dumplings and tea
Get home read the paper and it makes me sick
Cheaper to visit Chengdu than pay rent in Brunswick
Black clouds over Shenzhen by Western decree
We blame the Middle Kingdom for a carbon footprint we
Fitted the shoe for back in nineteen seventy three
Everything made in China but now we want them to leave
We blame them for the power we granted to thee
And now you believe anything on a TV Screen
But you can learn the language and see for yourself
Who am I kidding, you'd rather they hate us instead
