The Lucky Country

We don't know how lucky we are
When the bough breaks, we'll never fall far
Mama's gonna buy you a brand new car
We don't know how lucky we, lucky we are

Someone called this the lucky country
Where our leadership is second-rate
So while the world outside's got bigger problems
We expect it all on a silver spoon, on a nickel plate
In an iron cup, on a tax-free bed of gold

Yeah, this place here was built by misfits
English, Irish, Scottish convicts
But a lot has changed since that invasion
So don't forget that this is not England, that it's not Ireland,
That it's called Australia

What are you so afraid of?
The world outside's already here
What are you all afraid of?
Our sons and daughters turning queer
What are you all afraid of?
Surpluses and equal rights
People in boats, they cost you votes
They'll take our jobs
They'll take our wives
And kill our vibe

We don't know how lucky we are
When the bough breaks, we'll never fall far
Gina's gonna buy you a brand new car
We don't know how lucky we, lucky we are

Someone called this the land of plenty

Where pockets are deep, but hearts are empty
And 'Fuck off, we're full', these words were spoken
As he laid in with a racist joke, with a heavy yoke
With a gavel stick, and a boot-cap made of steel

And I never wanna hear you say
That you are never gonna live that way
For I,
For I

So we'll kill ourselves for our occupation
And we'll let those die that try to take them
So much pain, so little glory
But we'll do we must for that trip to Rome, for that brand new phone
For that reno'd home, for that tax-free bed of gold

What are you so afraid of?
The world outside's already here
What are you all afraid of?
Our sons and daughters turning queer
What are you all afraid of?
Surpluses and equal rights
People in boats, they cost you votes
They'll take our jobs
They'll take our wives
And kill our vibe

We don't know how lucky we are
When the bough breaks, we'll never fall far
Tony's gonna buy you a brand new car
We don't know how lucky we, lucky we are
