Wild Colonial Boy (Live At the Playroom)

Here's a newie

I am a wild colonial boy
My name you'll never see
My land is ruled for Anglophiles
And forces foreign to me
I do not curse your referees
In boardrooms far away
Yeah, who am I to question these
Who plan their final day?

I never know the jealousies
The overcrowded pain
I live and breathe the silences
The dust where no man reigns
Yeah, no man reigns

I'm in love
I got blazing light
Ten thousand miles of ocean
I'm alone
And there's more like me
Ignoring the end of our show

And when they shaft my brother dear
And pay him off with lies
I fill my hand with the union card
And aim between their eyes

If I smile, while they crawl around
Too condescending to blame me
I am young, baby, you're so old
Gothic, religious and tame

I'm just a wild colonial boy
My name you'll never see
I breathe the silence that destroys
All their desperate harmony
