Australia (The Kinks song)
}}
"Australia" is a song by the British rock band The Kinks, appearing on their 1969 album, ''Arthur (Or the Decline and Fall of the British Empire)''. It was written by the band's main songwriter, Ray Davies.
==Lyrics and Music==
In the song, the character Derek (who is featured in the story line of ''Arthur (Or the Decline and Fall of the British Empire)'') attempts to convince his father, Arthur, of the great opportunities available in Australia, where there's "no drug addiction" and you can "surf like they do in the U.S.A." Derek's advertisement is compared to John Smith, who campaigned for America in a similar manner, by author Thomas Kitts.
The song also features a jam sequence lasting for approximately half the song, which is atypical for The Kinks. In the Australian single edit, this section is removed by editing an earlier section of the song into another section during a drum beat, which is then followed by a fade-out.
