AUSTRALIA it surrounds me like a blanket of clarity happiness, overwhelming in your day so let's go, to australia we can be so happy in australia romeo and juliet happy as can be nothing could go wrong i live to serve thee romeo and juliet i won't let things complicate on the beach of the coral reef think of the happiness we will create sedation surrounds me this gulf of endearing charlatton would kill with no remore for you kill to escapte the dawn you'll come with me to australia romeo and juliet one last kiss in the night run away with me you, i can't live without romeo and juliet we shall be together til the end whenever it may come be it now, or in australia we'll find happiness in australia emptiness surrounds me you'll take this poison for me and i'll push the dagger thru my chest romeo and juliet we've really come to part in australia (TOMMY'S EXPLANATION: this was a collaborative effort lyrically, with myself and michael trading lines over cups of coffee in big boy on a winter's day ... before we got banned from big boy... anyway, and then the lyrics were forgotten until half a year later when i found them in my room, and then tweaked the lyrics, added the australia metaphors (it's thought of more as a utopian state of mind here than the actual continent) and presented it to the boys. so that's how this narrative of a failed relationship came to its present form. hell yeah.)
