Lyrics

There's a road train going nowhere Roads are cut, lines are down We'll be staying 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 hanging on by their fingertips We cursed and stumbled across that shore What for? 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 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 that 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 And I see Truganini's in chains I hear much support for the monarchy 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
