Truganini

There's a road train goin' nowhere

Roads are cut, lines are down

We'll be stayin' 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 hangin' 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, yeah

And the world won't stand still

And the world 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 the treadmill, mate

And I hope you're not beaten yet, not yet

I hear much support for the monarchy

I hear the Union Jack's to remain

I see Namatjira in custody

I see Truganini's in chains, yeah

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 won't stand still

And the world won't stand still

Chains

And the world won't stand still

And the world won't stand still
