Cold Chisel - Wild Colonial Boy lyrics

I am a wild colonial boy My name you'll never see My land is ruled by 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've never known the jealousies The overcrowded pain I live and breathe the silences The dust where 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 their 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 And if I smile, When they crawl around Too condescending to blame me I am young, Baby they're so old Gothic, religious and tame I am just a wild colonial boy My name you'll never see I breathe the silence that destroys All their desperate harmony
