77 % |
| shaking my head at the same ol’loathing and fear |
| Stranger in my own land, can’t understand |
| How the very word Australian has been damned |
| I fucking hate myself, take 'Aussie'from my name |
| Erase this endless shame, forever casting blame |
| If you don’t act the same will I destroy you? |
| Everyone looks the same beaten, black and blue |
| So I’ve had enough of these redneck pricks |
| When fact is the only fuckin shit that sticks |
| Watch as I tear the very skin from my face |
| So none’ll see my race, my deep disgrace |
| Your not even from here in the first place! |
| And those that are you wanna further debase |
| Nup, no more, never again whether by fist or pen |
| I will defend, cause I’m at a loose end |
| The shattered remnants of Aussie dignity |
| I’m a skip, whitey, round-eye suprise me By using your shrivelled brain to please explain |
| How the clever country just went down the drain |
| We rode the sheep’s back now the sheep ride you |
| If this is how its gonna be don’t call me 'true blue' |
| I denounce my ancestors, wounds still fester |
| If you say 'it aint so’I suggest ya’wake up It’s time for you to Wake up — this country needs a fucking shake up Wake up — these cunts need a shake up (x4) |
| Talkback squawking hacks won’t relax |
| Until Jones’y, Zemanek and Laws are all axed |
| 77 percent of aussies are racist |
| And if you’re here, I’ll say it your faces |
| Rich redneck pricks still hold all the aces |
| So I’ll buy ya a beer, with an arsenic chaser |
| Better off dead? |
| is that what I’ve said? |
| Tempting to take for all the blood you’ve shed |
| No doubt your as bad as your dads and ya mums |
| Mainsteam media making me so fucking glum |
| Just anglo reality, intellectual cavities |
| Channel 9 fostering prejudiced mentalities |
| I won’t be a casualty, just mention casually |
| That I can’t stand for you shit-eating bullies |
| Preying on peeps without a mainstream voice |
| Most of you stay silent but I’ve got no choice |
| Well I’ve yelled my lungs out but to no avail |
| Well I’ve yelled my lungs out but to no avail |
| Well I’ve yelled my lungs out but to no fukin’avail |
| That you’re a stranger yourself now thats the sting in the tail |
| Captain Cook was the very first queue jumper |
| It was immigrant labour that made Australia plumper |
| Enough is enough, whiteys go pack your stuff |
| Don’t wanna live in England? |
| That’s fucking tough |
| I’m sick and tired of this redneck wonderland |
| Most’ve you stay silent and I can’t understand |
| I just can’t understand (understand) |
