There's a message from the outback A murmur on the breeze Some restless dreams awakened me this morning The message came from Uluru, a spirit's ill at ease In ancient voices sounding out a warning You've taken all you wanted, I heard the anguish cry Time has come to say enough before the well runs dry This is Australia calling This is Australia calling Here comes the future, time to fire up Gonna find a way to get this country rolling Doom and gloom is easy, we gotta shake it off Gotta get up early in the morning The honeymoon is over, can you hear the call? We've gotta come out fighting, our backs against the wall This is Australia calling This is Australia calling This is Australia calling This is Australia calling Is there anybody out there? Is there anybody out there? This is Australia calling This is Australia calling This is Australia calling This is Australia calling This is Australia calling
