The three albums the Beat released in the early 1980's are pure treasure. On songs like this they had a very psychedelic edge.

Got turned on to this group by members of SOVIET SEX, a New York City-based NEW WAVE Band that was prominent in the early 1980's. Always dug this song and other tunes from the record Wha-Happen. STILL dig this song.

Seems to be some confusion over what this song's about. It's not literally describing NZ as being a place to own a dream home. Back in the early 80s there was a lot of discussion pertaining to choosing New Zealand as an ideal place to bury nuclear waste. Both the Soviets and USA were keen to take advantage - hence the lyric: "play America and Russia find a place to hide their poison." The lyrics are presented in the sarcastic form of a panel show where the 'winner' could take advantage of life in NZ - but on borrowed time due to the place about to be turned into a toxic dump! Fortunately New Zealand's then Prime Minister David Lange put a stop to any such discussion.
