Wikipedia:
Frontline is the fourth studio album by the Australian folk-rock group Redgum. It was the last album that John Schumann performed on before he left the group.
The band released Frontline in June 1984 with its single I’ve Been to Bali Too, then started touring folk venues in the UK and Europe with some success. Late in 1985, Schumann announced that he had signed a solo deal with CBS Records and would be quitting.

Lyrics:
Qantas flight 20, Denpasar, meals and accom’, rent-a-car
I’ve been to Bali, I’ve been to Bali too
Took a two week course at a suntan clinic
So lying round legian and I wouldn’t look anaemic
And you can’t impress me, ’cause I’ve been to Bali too
