To Darwin

I catch the 265 past Seaforth Park As four octogenarians play doubles on the court And I'm headed to the ANZ to deposit my weekly check 'Cause I'm still getting paid in cash at the kiosk It hasn't sunk in that I'll be moving to Darwin By the end of the month, it hasn't sunk in yet Yeah, I'll miss the way we messed around The streets of south-west Adelaide Even though the sun shines in the tropics as well I know that life is changin' But like a racist on Australia Day I want things to stay the same Yeah, I want this life to stay this way I finished work at ten so I sent a message to my friends And asked if they wanna hang out before I go I step on dotted lines, one, two, three, four, five, six times My hips rigid as the above Norfolk I'm lovin' life This is my time, my lines just seem to rhyme My hair looks nice, I'm truly in my prime Am I throwing it all away? In search of warmer, humid days I gotta remember to watch the pavement I know that life is changin' (but like-, oh) But like a racist on Australia Day I want things to stay the same Yeah, I want this life to stay this way (I want this life to stay this way) Darwin's not so far away And nothin' really changes I know I can always stay this way
