Well, these days
It’s hard to believe
The elected are there to lead
Pushing misinformation
And falsities, with added subtitles
And emotive rhetoric
Catch this dummy, over no beat,
Cos it’s all f***ing truth
In front of your eyes to see
Paraded over digital feeds
Serving who? Ain't you and me
Now make sure you hear me clearly (PAUSE)
Hook:
They’ve got us believing in a false dream’n,
It’s not what it seems’n, we gotta wake up to challenge our fate,
Cos if we stay this road, we’ll decay not grow –
‘n’ I can’t take that so (PAUSE):
This is a call to action, for every colour and faction –
That our time is lapsin’ so forget the distractions.
I’m ashamed,- parties play political games
Running in circles to shift the blame
No sense of an “Australian way”
Lack the spine of a Statesman
Aimless, Nd blind conceit
Air'n water just aren’t as sweet?
Mine up, Nd take a sip of concrete
While the First People have no seat
Nd mentally-ill starve on the street
Nd Rosie’s women march to their beat
Nd “boats” of broken people are struck
All-to-fall, at the feet, of our nation, in defeat
(Spoken): So, let me re-establish ‘the nature of the threat’
It’s the one in a suit
That plunders n loots
Nd' they’re in every ethnic group
(Spoken): I’m not radical or revolutionary
I don’t make stacks,
I pay tax Nd' sit around n watch movies to sooth me
I eat meat and beat my meat to porn
But before the point is overdrawn
Nd I offend everyone with the poem
People reject what they don’t understand
So, let me make it simple: (1) there is no sequel (2) with no end in sight, (3) the future looks lethal
(Spoken): Now everybody stand-up to the National Anthem.
Australian’s are all disgraced,
For we can plainly see;
Our system does not serve (ice) us;
From now it cannot be;
Our hands are bound, it needs to shift
Our beauty in despair;
Cos history’s page will be amazed
We’re advancing to nowhere,
With all we have we still don’t see
We’re advancing to nowhere! (Cut the beat)
