Alright
Alright
Here we go
ย
I am a wild colonial boy
My name you'll never see
My land is ruled by Anglophiles
And forces foreign to me
Well, I do not curse your referees
In boardrooms far away
Yeah, who am I to question these
Who plan their final day?
Well, I've never known the jealousies
Or the overcrowded pain
Well, I live and breathe, for the silences
And the dust where no man reigns
Yeah, where no main reigns
ย
I'm in love, I got blazing light
Ten thousand miles of ocean
I'm alone, and there's more like me
Ignoring the end of our show
And when they shaft my brother dear
And they pay him off with lies
Well, I fill my hand with the union card
And I aim right between their eyes
Between their eyes
ย
Here we go
ย
If I smile while they crawl around
Too condescending to blame me
I am young, baby, they're so old
Gothic, religious and tame
Hey, well, I am just a wild colonial boy
And my name you'll never see
Well, I breathe the silence that destroys
All their desperate harmony
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh
You don't have to worry then
Hey, back to the wild colonial boy
And I remember I want, the thing I need
I got to stretch to Heaven...
