Our land abounds in nature’s gifts
Of beauty, rich and rare

In joyful strains then let us sing

To make this Commonwealth of ours
Renowned of all the lands,

We’ve boundless plains to share,
With courage let us all combine

In joyful strains then let us sing,

What you’ve found is a fuck up on my part that I’d never noticed until now.
It’s supposed to say: piece’a’piss. Meaning: A simple task.
I assume it’s a tête–à–tête but with alcohol?
Not Mr Deeds, Mr Accident.
Hey! Young Einstein was pretty good, Reckless Kelly and Mr Deeds… not so much.
Could be worse.
I know what those words mean, but…
I was an eighties kid.
Apart from the Skyhooks album, you chose some god awful representations of my culture.
Beware the Bunyip!
Watch a Horror Movie, right there on my TV…
OI! For the ’80s kids anyway.

Beer. Of course. Now I can’t stop laughing at it :-)
Pretty much “free beer” I reckon.
