Today the song might be regarded as politically incorrect as its subject is an Aborigine boy in the Outback who is none too bright. In the end he has to be told that if he wants his boomerang to come back he should first throw it. :(

Good to see people recognising that this song is not about Australia as it was but a spoof of the times. I saw it live on TV a million years ago and loved it. It's something you only listen to every couple of years and I still get a chuckle out of it. Priceless.

Just heard this again on Brian Matthew's Radio Two show this morning. Absolute classic about a backless boomerang. "Good gracious, there goes a kangaroo!"

@RescoeZ Screw political correctness. What has it ever done for us except put money in lawyers' pockets and make so many people miserable? A pox upon it, I say!

Aborignes have coroborees,not pow wows, but this is a real send up, tongue in cheek. They don't talk with an English accent either.Take it as a fun song.The chanting is more like Maori also.I am Aussie born with many Aborigine friends.
