lyrics

Hello Australia - Bill here
Well, I haven't been down under for quite a while
It's great to see you Austrians speak such good English
Hey hey hey. Hey, I say "gee-day"

Well, I'm shopping 'round the same speech
All around the world
My head is in a spin
'Cause I think I met a girl

Hey hey hey

I found love in the arse-end of the world

Good day... good day Australia. This is your Queen
I haven't been down under for quite a while
I love the way you colonials touch me on the back
Hey hey hey. I say "good day"

Look, it's the Queen's English. That means that it's MY English, so if I say "blegurgh", you have to include it. Go on, put it in a sentence
Err... I blegurghed the shops...
Excellent, excellent

Well, I've been waving my white glove
From a bullet-proof van
But I never felt safer
Than with this crude Southern man

Hey hey hey

I found love in the arse-end of the world

I did not have sex with that woman. We were making sweet, sweet love. It was too beautiful to use such a crude term. We were humping like two wild buffalo and I will not reduce it to some base animal act. Gotta tell you though - she's a hellcat!

I found love in the arse-end of the world

Bill, you send electricity up my spine
I think that's your pacemaker, but Lizzie, that's just fine

Hey hey hey
I think I'll stay

Well, Bill, I think that you and I might marry
I love the way you get along with my grandson Harry
Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey

Well, I like the little kid
He really gets good weed
And me and him get whacked
And then we watch the Matrix

Hey hey hey

Then we all get the munchies
And 7-11 on the corner looks quite nice
He has chips, and I have potato chips
And I have crisps... and vanilla slice

I found love in the arse-end...
Maybe you can be the new Governer-General
I found love in the arse-end...
Maybe you in turn, can be my new intern

I found love in the..
Arse-end...
Arse-end...
Arse-end...
...of the world!

Assassin's Creed: Syndicate
by Austin Wintory

supported by 12 fans who also own “Clinton and the Queen”

Despite the lighthearted bombastic intentions of the main campaign, Syndicate turned out to be a very intimate and melancholic experience that leaves me with more farsickness than anything else. Austin's soundtrack played a huge role and every time I hear its wonderful verves, it brings me back to these beautiful feelings. Lovely music all throughout. replicant_hazard
