Nothing to See Here
   
  (Many thanks to Belinda for these lyrics).
   
  This challenge was based on some findings that said 50% of British people would rather live in Australia. However, since we don't want them, Tripod was asked to write a song to discourage them from coming to Australia. They also had to include the fact that on that week, Woolworths' shares were down a dollar.
   
Tripod: Nothing to see here, move along,
  You want to be here, you'd be wrong.
  200 years here, not very long,
  And we haven't got the place ready for you yet.
  Haven't got the place ready for you yet.
   
Gatesy: You've got the castles, dating back thousands of years,
Tripod: The closest thing we've got is the film "The Castle".
Gatesy: And you've got the wondrous ancient Hadrian's Wall,
Tripod: And we've got Adrian's wall.
Gatesy: It's near my house, we played downball against it, it's kinda cool actually.
   
Gatesy: You've got a rich and vibrant "Rock and Roll" scene,
Tripod: We've got the Australian Doors show.
Gatesy: And I know our native chefs are amongst the best in the world,
Tripod: Like Gabriel Gate and Dorinda Hafner.
   
Scod: But there's...
Tripod: ... Nothing to see here, move along,
  You want to be here, you'd be wrong.
  200 years here, not very long,
  And we haven't got the place ready for you yet.
  Haven't got the place ready for you yet.
   
Yon: Your fragile pommy skin could not last a day,
  Under the harsh desert sun of Hobart.
  Let's face it, you've come out of the deal okay,
  You get Kylie and we get Dr Who.
Tripod: Lucky you.
   
Scod: And the drugs don't work as well here,
  Much more hard to get and twice as dear.
  Our Arena spectaculars almost always suck,
  And the Woolworth shares are down a buck.
   
  And there's...
Tripod: ... Nothing to see here, move along,
  You want to be here, you'd be wrong.
  We think an hour's long enough to write a song,
  And we haven't got the place ready for you yet.
  You wouldn't like it here, it's way too cold and wet,
  And the food here is the worst you'll ever get,
  And we haven't got the place ready for you yet.
