WAKE UP TIME   When the shearing sheds are silent and the stock camps fallen quiet   When the gidgee coals no longer glow across the outback night   And the bush is forced to hang a sign, '. gone broke and won't be back'   And spirits fear to find a way beyond the beaten track.  When harvesters stand derelict upon the wind swept plains. And brave hearts pin their hopes no more on chance of loving rains.   When a hundred outback settlements are ghost towns overnight   When we've lost the drive and heart we had to once more see us right     When 'Pioneer' means a stereo and 'Digger' some backhoe   And the 'Outback' is behind the house. there's nowhere else to go   And 'Anzac' is a biscuit brand and probably foreign owned   And education really means brainwashed and neatly cloned     When you have to bake a loaf of bread to make a decent crust   And our heritage once enshrined in gold is crumbling to dust   The Story. I was a very happy man. My wonderful girlfriend and I had been dating for over a year, and so we decided to get married. There was only one little thing bothering me....It was her beautiful younger sister. My prospective sister-in-law was 22, wore very tight miniskirts, and generally was bra-less. She would regularly bend down when she was near me, and I always got more than a nice view. It had to be deliberate on her part, because she never did it when she was nearanyone else. One day her 'little' sister called and asked me to come over to check the wedding invitations. She was alone when I arrived, and she whispered to me that she had feelings and desires for me that she couldn't overcome. She told me that she wanted me just once before I got married and committed my life to her sister. 16 And old folk pay their camping fees on land 16 for which they fought  And fishing is a great escape; this is until you're caught     When you see our kids with yankee caps and resentment in their eyes   And the soaring crime and hopeless hearts is no longer a surprise   When the name of RM Williams is a yuppie clothing brand   And not a product of our heritage that grew off the land When offering a hand makes people think you'll amputate   And two dogs meeting in the street is what you call a 'Mate'   When 'Political Correctness' has replaced all common sense   When you're forced to see it their way, there's no sitting on the fence     Yes one day you might find yourself an outcast in this land   Perhaps your heart will tell you then, ' I should have made a stand'   Just go and ask the farmers that should remove all doubt   Then join the swelling ranks who say, ' don't sell <strong>Australia</strong> out' Well, I was in total shock, and couldn't say a word. She said, 'I'm going upstairs to my bedroom, and if you want one last wild fling, just come up and get me.' I was stunned and frozen in shock as I watched her go up the stairs. I stood there for a moment..... then turned away and made a beeline straight to the front door. I opened the door, and headed straight towards my car. Good Lord! My entire future in-laws were standing outside, all clapping! With tears in his eyes, my prospective father-in-law hugged me and said, 'We are very happy that you have passed our little test. We couldn't ask for a better man for our daughter. Welcome to the family.' And the moral of this story is: Always keep your condoms in your car.
