Come on guys, it's not that hard! He's in a hotel room, and he's an artist, so what does that suggest to you?
He's TOURING!
Todd Street Mall is in Alice Springs.
A gentle winter haze might be found in Canberra.
Hindley Street would definitely be refering to Adelaide.
And where else would you find a western ocean breeze but in Perth?
So, this is a song about touring around the country, in an album called, funnily enough, Internationalist.
"Twenty-five in thirty days makes this one feel like home" - he's been moving around so much that wherever he is feels like home.
"Why should I complain when everybody else is overworked and underpaid" - the creature comforts aren't the best, but it's pretty good compared to other jobs.
"Days keep rolling over" - every day on tour feels just like the last.
"Escape to the undercover" - he's becoming more and more famous, so he doesn't mind the shelter of his hotel room.
"Soon it will all be over, and we can start again" - when the tour's finished they'll start songwriting again.
