how can we advance australia/
when it’s not fair unless your skin is?
the thing is you need more than a stamp on paper/
to pass ports but we’re more scared about sharing land with asia/
we should say welcome, not stop the boats/
recycling empty statements like ‘jobs and growth’/
repeating old statistics of what you know/
in interviews makes me think you’ve lost a vote/
spending money you think is never-ending/
on funding visions for the future but didn’t do it by 2020/
it doesn’t matter who we choose in the next elеction/
either way, we’re all doomеd with the best of efforts/
surprised by all the lies and broken promises/
and avoiding them instead of climbing over obstacles/
honesty isn’t as common as it used to be/
but watch as i refuse to keep the lines i wrote anonymous

in joyful strains then let us sing/ (okay)
in joyful strains then let us sing/ (obey)
in joyful strains then let us sing/ (no way)
enjoy, i think we’ve gone astray

the government is spoon-feeding us sh-t as supplements/
for the truth and we shovel it until we’ve had enough of it/
but it’s something that we’re still encouraging/
and if we ever let it slip then they come and quickly cover it/
how the h-ll are we supposed to get it right/
when equal freedom hinges on a f-cking postal plebiscite?
nothing but a bunch of cut-throats with severed ties/
promoted with sh-t-eating grins imposed on every sign/
so how can we take pride in a nation/
that prides itself on disguised indignation?
subtle segregation within the station/
the discreet discrimination is interracial/
“love it or leave it”, i don’t f-cking believe it/
stand in the sun with red sand under your feet/
and say you were here first and there’s nothing to see/
with the blood of men and women of colour running beneath
in joyful strains then let us sing/ (okay)
in joyful strains then let us sing/ (obey)
in joyful strains then let us sing/ (no way)
enjoy, i think we’ve gone astray

back at school they taught us about captain cook/
and a country that was settled by captured crooks/
grab a book and read about how they stabbed and took/
if you don’t see what i mean, please have a look/
we’ve got the jack on our flag and the queen on our coins/
branded with the acts of attack to seek and destroy/
invade and overtake just to keep and exploit/
with a date to celebrate and let the people rejoice/
we act like there was never a precedent/
like when they elected an african american president/
and i don’t know if we’ll ever get to the end of it/
but i try to remember like november 11/
and f-ck a racist or anyone saying they don’t like it/
they hate the rest but call themselves one nation/
it’s disgusting, it’s un-australian/
we need to train our minds to be kind but some are derailing it

in joyful strains then let us sing/ (okay)
in joyful strains then let us sing/ (obey)
in joyful strains then let us sing/ (no way)
enjoy, i think we’ve gone astray
