Help! I have been trying for MONTHS to track down one of my favorite songs from the mid-80's. I think it was by an Australian group (either Midnight Oil or Underworld) because it came out at about the same time as "Burning Beds" and "Underneath the Radar". It was a great dance track, and it sounded kind of like a juiced-up sea chanty. There was something in the lyrics about being or going "on the dole", and the chorus had the motif that the first time, it had the words "one time round", the second time it was "two times round" and the third time, (you guessed it) "three times round."

Thanks so much. Smile
