Inspired by the underground music scene of Sydney and Melbourne in the 1980s, when music made by Australian artists was unique.

Story behind the song
This is my theme song.
Lyrics
I'll tell you a secret 'bout some place under the ground
Deep down in the concrete jungle
A place ruled only by the rhythm of the crowd
A place where lights are low and music is loud
I'm Kim o' the Concrete Jungle deep under the ground
Where the bass is thumping stronger
A place in the cavern where the walls are painted black
A place where there's music and there's no going back
Going deep down in the basement where the monkeys play
Where the snakes coil round and round
And the black clad tribesmen shout
Gonna play some tribal beat to make this concrete jungle jump
Gonna play it deep down there
Gonna go deep down into the jungle
You won't find this jungle in some far away place
There's no need to travel very far
Just go to the city and look down between your feet
You'll hear the brass monkeys pounding under the street
