First  and last men walk  this earth but only  a few survive
 I'm the wizard  of aus and I've got  it all planned for my first  nuclear device
 I don't  really care about which  way you vote cos my gerrymander  works out fine
 I sell  desert stretches like a big  rubber glove to Japan  for a nuclear device
 nuclear device! (play: )
 nuclear device! (play: )
 nuclear device! (play: )
 If I  could get lucky I'd secede from the states, I'd buy the country at an incredible rate!
Brisbane  men stay home  at night cos I outlawed  all of the vice
 I'm the wizard  of aus and I've rolled  the streets dreaming of  a nuclear device
 If I  could get lucky I'd go out  on my own and sell  Australia the rice
 nuclear device! (play: )
 nuclear device! (play: )
 nuclear device! (play: )
 If I  could get lucky and secede from the states, I'd buy the country at an incredible rate! (x3)
 At an incredible rate! (x8)
 Stay on F 'til fade
