Do you remember this song when Australia was the best in the world at cricket, swimming, hockey, netball, rugby etc we were the lucky country where everyone was happy, easy going beach dwellers We used to be strong, rugged, super fit, super fun larkins that the rest of the world loved. Oh the good old days.
Now we are obese, weak, drug taking, racist, self absorbed, stressed out, aggressive arrogant so and sos. We have lost our charms. We always loved a beer and going out now too many of us don't know when to stop becoming drunken abusive louts causing trouble wherever we go. Example Bali. The old Aussie might get a little rowdy maybe have a fight but it was never you that started trouble and it was a fair fight one on one or two on two no weapons. Now its knives, gassing people, guys beating up girls and old people and big groups picking on individuals. Not strong at all very weak. Just like our inability to kick drugs - smoking, alcohol included. If you cant stop taking these soft drugs what about proper drugs like speed, ecstasy and Ice which is an epidemic in Australia today. Where have all the strong minded Aussies gone?
We can't stop eating we are now the most Obese country in the world this is a far cry from the bronzed Aussie look of the 70's and 80's. What's wrong Australia is life too easy? Did our parents spoil us too much if that's the case the way kids are spoiled now i don't want to be hear in 20 years when they all grow up.
We have such a good standard of living hear, great medical and social welfare, great weather relatively safe environment everything is great for us so whats the problem? Too much food? try living in Africa where there is too little food now that is a problem. Stop making our benefits into problems. Stop being racist just because your family arrived here longer ago than someone else's family. Unless you are Aboriginal we are all immigrants so why do you have more rights than anyone else. It was there country first so remember that when you met an Aboriginal again. Australia used to be the home to everyone who needed it now we are here we want to close the borders how hypocritical. Let everyone in we need the population.
C'mon Australia lets reverse the cycle put the knife and folk down and go for a jog or walk. Put down the cigarette and pick up a bike and go for a ride. Put down your phone, ipad, or laptop and pick up a book. Put down the beer and pick up a vegetable. Stop complaining start living. Do something for someone else not yourself. Let that person in at the lights it wont hurt you, give way to your fellow motorist look at the situation from there point of view. Look at the big picture not just your little life. Look up from the phone to watch where you are going why should everyone else avoid you and make up for your mistakes. Be nicer to each other, eat clean vegetarian if possible, train everyday, sleep more, take more time for other people, leave earlier so you aren't stressed out and driving erratically. Look after the environment its the only one we have. Do something for the good of the world not for you, Recycle, reuse, refuse. Leave the car at home and walk or ride. Do something today not for financial gain but for the good of the world. Stop judging people on financial basis. Just stop being so mone driven all the time. He who dies with the most toys still dies.
Look after yourself not with sweets and drugs but with good food, sleep and exercise.
C'mon Australia lets become likeable,fit, strong, healthy and happy people again.
