What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
(Cheers) Well I'm left sitting here staring into a beer
2
shaking my head at the same ol' loathing and fear
3
Stranger in my own land, can't understand
4
How the very word Australian has been damned
5
I fucking hate myself, take 'Aussie' from my name
6
Erase this endless shame, forever casting blame
7
If you don't act the same will I destroy you?
8
Everyone looks the same beaten, black and blue
9
So I've had enough of these redneck pricks
10
When fact is the only real shit that sticks
11
Watch as I tear the very skin from my face
12
So none'll see my race, my deep disgrace
13
Your not even from here in the first place
14
And those that are you wanna further debase
15
Nup, no more, never again whether by fist or pen
16
I will defend, cos I'm at a loose end
17
The shattered remnants of Aussie dignity
18
I'm a skip, whitey, round-eye suprise me
19
By using your shrivelled brain to please explain
20
How the clever country just went down the drain
21
We rode the sheep's back now the sheep ride you
22
If this is how its gonna be don't call me 'true blue'
23
I denounce my ancestors, wounds still fester
24
If you say 'it aint so' I suggest ya' wake up
25
(Chorus)
26
Wake up - this country needs a fucking shake up
27
Wake up - these cunts need a shake up (x4)
28
Talkback squawking hacks won't relax
29
Until Jones'y, Zemanek and Laws are all axed
30
77 percent of aussies are racist
31
And if you're here, I'll say it your faces
32
Rich redneck pricks still hold all the aces
33
So I'll buy ya a beer, with an arsenic chaser
34
Better off dead? is that what I've said?
35
Tempting to take for all the blood you've shed
36
No doubt your as bad as your dads and ya mums
37
Mainsteam media making me so fucking glum
38
Just anglo reality, intellectual cavities
39
Channel 9 fostering prejudiced mentalities
40
I won't be a casualty, just mention casually
41
That I can't stand for you shit-eating bullies
42
Preying on peeps without a mainstream voice
43
Most of you stay silent but I've got no choice
44
(Chorus)
45
Well I've yelled my lungs out but to no avail
46
Well I've yelled my lungs out but to no avail
47
Well I've yelled my lungs out but to no fukin' avail
48
That you're a stranger yourself now thats the sting in the tail
49
Captain Cook was the very first queue jumper
50
It was immigrant labour that made Australia plumper
51
Enough is enough, whiteys go pack your stuff
52
Don't wanna live in England? That's fucking tough
53
I'm sick and tired of this redneck wonderland
54
Most've you stay silent and I can't understand
55
I just can't understand (understand)
56
(Chorus)
