There's a road train going nowhere |
|
Roads are cut, lines are down |
|
We'll be staying at the Roma Bar |
|
Till that monsoon passes on |
|
The backbone of this country's broken |
|
The land is cracked and the land is sore |
|
Farmers are hanging on by their fingertips |
|
We cursed and stumbled across that shore, what for |
|
Well, I hear much support for the monarchy |
|
I hear the Union Jack's to remain |
|
I see Namatjira in custody |
|
And I see Truganini's in chains |
|
And the world, it won't stand still |
|
And the world, it won't stand still |
|
The blue collar work, it don't get you nowhere |
|
You just go round and round in debt |
|
Somebody's got you on that treadmill, mate |
|
And I hope you're not beaten yet, not yet |
|
I hear much support for the monarchy |
|
And I hear the Union Jack's to remain |
|
I see Namatjira in custody |
|
And I see Truganini's in chains |
|
Well, I hear much support for the monarchy |
|
And I see the Union Jack in flames, let it burn |
|
I see Namatjira with dignity |
|
And I see Truganini's in chains, chains |
|
And the world, it won't stand still |
|
And the world, it won't stand still, [Incomprehensible] |
|
And the world, it won't stand still |
|
And the world, it won't stand still |
