[Verse 1] I think I hear the sounds of then and people talking The scenes recalled by minute movement And songs they fall from the backing tape That certain texture, that certain smell
[Verse 2] To lie in sweat on familiar sheets In brick veneer on financed beds In a room of silent HardieFlex That certain texture, that certain smell
[Pre-Chorus] Brings home the heavy days Brings home the the nighttime swell
[Chorus] Out on the patio we'd sit And the humidity we'd breathe We'd watch the lightning crack over cane-fields And laugh and think, "This is Australia"
[Verse 3] The block is awkward, it faces west Long diagonals and sloping, too And in the distance, through the heat haze In convoys of silence the cattle graze
[Pre-Chorus] That certain texture, that certain beat Brings forth the nighttime heat Cha-kow
[Chorus] Out on the patio we'd sit And the humidity we'd breathe We'd watch the lightning crack over cane-fields Laugh and think that this is Australia
[Verse 2, repeated] To lie in sweat, on familiar sheets In brick veneer on financed beds In a room of silent HardieFlex That certain texture, that certain smell
[Pre-Chorus] Brings forth the heavy days Brings forth the night time swell Cha-kow
[Chorus] Out on the patio we'd sit And the humidity we'd breathe We'd watch the lightning crack over cane-fields And laugh and think, "This is Australia"
