(Proposed New Australian National Anthem lyrics)
Of the Nanny State Beware
Australian's all let us unite
For we're no longer free
Media fed panic and fear for all
Our home ruled by decree
The rule of law is now adrift
It's liberty that needs repair
In history's page let every stage
Of the Nanny State beware
A false claim of safety for you it'll bring
Of the Nanny State beware
Choice and freedom being the true cost
Of the state parenting the land
Where individual choice is gone
Instead it's centrally planned
freedom is lost by degrees
Just a little here and there
Don't fall prey to that trap
Of the Nanny State beware
A false claim of safety for you it'll bring
Of the Nanny State beware

(Original Australian National Anthem lyrics)
Advance Australia Fair
For we are young and free
We've golden soil and wealth for toil
Our home is girt by sea
Our land abounds in nature's gifts
Of beauty, rich and rare
In history's page let every stage
Advance Australia fair
Advance Australia fair
Beneath our radiant Southern Cross
We'll toil with hearts and hands
To make this Commonwealth of ours
Renowned of all the lands
For those who've across the seas
We've boundless plains to share
With courage let us all combine
In joyful strains then let us sing
Advance Australia fair
