Down Under Lyrics Question

[michael]

Does this mean something like he's picking a fight?

"I said to the man, are you trying to tempt me
Because I come from the land of plenty?"

I found out what a Kombi is, Zombie, Chunder and Vegemite!

[-JJ-]

Im perdy sure that line means that he has everything he ineeds in Australia and more

[michael]

Thanks, I'm just exploring a little Australian culture. I wonder if I could get some vegemite here? Do you keep it in stock?

[dynomatt]

when I lived in the US, I could not find any Americans who actually liked the taste of vegemite.

There were a couple of shops that stocked it. There's an Australiana chain that opened up around Crocodile Dundee time, but it may have died a natural death. We used to get ours from the Australian Embassy in Washington. Also got our Violet Crumbles and VB from there!!!

There's also a couple of ex-pat sites that cater to Australian's living overseas. You'd find it on one of them.

If I were you, and you haven't tried it before, get a smaller jar.

It's unique.

Very true! It is what one would call an "acquired taste"!

As for me - I love the stuff!

I opted for the 115g jar. I think 2 lbs. might be too much for a first timer Now do I put this stuff on regular bread? I heard you can make soup, gravy all kinds of stuff with it. Will keep you posted.
