The promotional video comically plays out the events of the lyric, showing Hay and other band members riding in a Volkswagen Kombi van, eating muesli with a 'strange lady', eating and drinking in a café, and lying in an opium den. The band are moved along at one point by a man in a shirt and tie who places a 'Sold' sign in the ground. Exterior shots were filmed at the Cronulla sand dunes in Sydney.[15] The band are seen carrying a coffin across the dunes at the end. This, Hay has explained, was a warning to his fellow Australians that their country's identity was dying as a result of overdevelopment and Americanization. Hay has also stated that the same ominous sentiment lies behind the choral line, Can't you hear that thunder You'd better run; you'd better take cover.[11]
When it comes to the 1980s, nothing Australian was more iconic than the popularity of Crocodile Dundee and the land down under. The 1980s was when America was really introduced to Australian culture, and the fascination of which led to numerous movies and music collaborations that we still talk about today.
This segues into a VW bus breaking down in the middle of the desert filled with pot-smoking hippies. And the reoccurring theme throughout the entire video is a band member who is constantly seen dragging a stuffed kangaroo plushie behind him on a leash.
It would eventually hit the number one spot and stay there for over 4 weeks. To date, more than 2 million copies of the song have been sold in the United States, and the official music video on YouTube has received just under 300 million views. 59ce067264
