There's an old Australian stockman lying dying And he gets himself up onto one elbow And he turns to his mates who are gathered around And he says:
Watch me wallabies feed, mate Watch me wallabies feed They're a dangerous breed, mate So watch me wallabies feed
All together now Tie me Kangaroo Down Sport, Tie me Kangaroo Down Sport, Tie me Kangaroo Down Sport, Tie me Kangaroo Down.
Keep me cockatoo cool, Kool Keep me cockatoo cool Don't go away from the fool, Kool Just keep me cockatoo cool
And take me koala back, Jack Take me koala back He lives somewhere out on the track, Mack So take me koala back
Let me aboes go loose, Lou Let me aboes go loose They're of no further use, Lou So let me aboes go loose
And mind me platypus duck, Bill Mind me platypus duck Oh, don't let him go running amuck, Bill Just mind me platypus duck
Play your didgeridoo, Blue Play your didgeridoo Oh, like keep playing till I shoot through, Blue Play your didgeridoo
Tan me hide when I'm dead, Fred Tan me hide when I'm dead So we tanned his hide when he died, Clyde And that's it hanging on the shed

Suddenly red blue lightsFlash us from behindLoud voice booming"Please step out onto the line"
Pele breathes words of comfortZina just hides her eyesPoliceman taps his shadesIs that a Chevy 69?
How bizarreHow bizarreHow bizarre
Oh wait, that's KIWI rap. (Or something. Never mind!)
But don't Angel City and AC/DC have rap songs, sort of??

TAKE A LONG LINE LYRICS
(Brewster-Neeson-Brewster)
He was selling postcards from a paper standa whiskey bottle in his withered handhe put a finger on a photo from an old magazineand saw himself in the shadow of his dream
They found him with his head inside a tin-pot crowntold him his feet stank and took him downtowncalled him agitator, spy and thiefshut him up in solitary third degreetake a long line, reel him in
He tried to appeal to the king of mighthe said "I'm just excercising my sacred right"the king he said "You ain't got no rightsyou're a madman, a traitor, get outta my sight"take along line, reel him in
They put him aboard a well wound whirlwindpulled out his teeth and rold him to grinhe gave them a smile, pulled out a bottle of wineand said "I never existed, you've been wasting your time"take a long line, reel him in

Why isn't it around so you can hear it? Just try releasing anything in Aust right now that isn't ultra-commercial. It won't get past community radio in the cities. There is an unwritten law about independent music getting no radio play without payola/favours/back scratching. Even highly publicised music struggles to break even. Record co's here are experiencing falling sales etc, same as the rest of the world, but the problem is worse as there's not a big population.
However, if Aussie hip-hop is like Aussie techno, you can probably tap into the Aussie hip-hop network by just exploring/mailing/emailing. I'm sure with a bit of effort you can get hold of all this stuff, 95% of which is on CD-R.

Some of the best stuff I've heard is Aboriginal hip hop, not for its subcultural authenticity but just because the flows are really distinct and occasionally quite wacky-in-a-good-way.

You forgot Germany.
As to Australia, I second The Herd but beware, their quality control with regard what they choose to release is, shall we say, lax.
Also try Resin Dogs, whose last album Grand Theft Audio (yeah I know, bear with them) was pretty fine - proper unreconstructed bogan rhymes too.

I've always found them to be consistent without ever doing anything really spectacular, and this album seems like more of the same. Nothing really jumped out at me much - the posse cut with Funkoars etc sounded good at least.

An Australian rapper called 2pec racked up a large bill in a seafood restaurant, before running into the sea to avoid paying, a Queensland court has heard.
Police set off in hot pursuit on jetskis for the man, who later claimed he ran to help a friend give birth on the beach, according to local media.
His bill was over A$600 (£360, $450).
Terry Peck, who has been charged with theft and assault, later said the lobsters were overcooked.
The 33-year-old appeared in court on Monday morning after the incident at Omeros Bros restaurant in Surfers Paradise on the east coast.He allegedly consumed two lobsters, a baby octopus, 21 vodka oyster shots and "a number of Coronas".
"Oh God! By himself?" said magistrate Joan White when she granted bail, according to ABC News.

A restaurant representative, Mark Hunnybun, rejected the criticism of the standard of cooking, telling the network: "We pride ourselves on cooking our lobsters perfectly."
Australian media have uncovered some of Mr Peck's self-produced music, including one track entitled Ozi Ozi Ozi Oy Oy Oy.
