We listen to a lot of Dan Zanes at home and in the car, and as such we hear quite a bit of his cover of "Waltzing Matilda"(a duet with Debbie Harry), Australia's national song. Friends, that song is fucked up like the Republican Party. And it's not just the 19th-century Australian slang that does the fucking-up; you can spend two seconds looking at this glossary to learn the definitions of "billabongs" and "jumbucks." To "waltz Matilda" is, in essence, to wander, as a hobo would.
No, it's the story of the song that's so fucked up. The gist of it is that a tramp captures a sheep when it comes to drink at the watering hole where he's camping. When a sheep rancher and some cops show up to confiscate the sheep, the tramp drowns himself in the watering hole, then haunts it, calling, "Who'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me?"
Class warfare? Suicide by the homeless? Overtones of unnatural interspecies affection? The supernatural? That's what a national anthem should be all about.
You can hear the song as inline MP3 files here (sung by Roger McGuinn of the Byrds, no less) and here (sung by Australian Rolf Harris).
