letra de the aussie dream is over! - dougald hendrick

[verse 1]
the aussie dream is fading fast
the nightmare’s on it’s way
the castle just a memory
a fading yesterday
the factories gone, the farms are sold
to overseas investors
and politicans line their pockets
filing up their ledgers

education now belongs
to those who pay the most
and servitude for all the rest
degrees in making toast
our services and health care
the ports we once controlled
infrastructure up for sale
it’s all been sold

[chorus i]
the nail you hang your hat on mate has come from overseas
your landlord and your furniture are probably chinese
the food there on your table you thought was aussie grown
you guessed it, it’s from overseas from places unbeknown

[verse 2]
so many aussie icons now
have gone the dodo’s way
the profits going somewhere else
other workers get the pay
seems that aussie businessmen
don’t give a blood d-mn
the only pride they care about
a dollar in the hand
let’s not forget the b-st-rds who
led us to this place
on million dollar pension politicans
the smugness on their face
they signed off on some un plan
an economic order
destroying aussie industry
and led the lamds to slaughter

[chorus ii]
the nail you hand your hat on mate
has come from overseas
your landlord and your furniture
are probably chinese
the car there in your driveway
the mower in your shed
used to be australian made
the industries now dead

[chorus ib]
the nail you hang your hat on mate
has come from overseas
your landlord and your furniture
are probably chinese
the food there on your table
you thought was aussie grown
you guessed it, it’s from overseas
now that we’re foreign owned
yeah it’s all from overweeas
now that we’re foreign owned
[outro]
you can think our politicians, mate, now that we’re foreign owned
