Plutonic Lab - January 26 lyrics

[Hook (Extended): Dan Sultan & Briggs] You can call it what you want But it just don't mean a thing No, it just don't mean a thing f** that, homie You can come and wave your flag But it don't mean a thing to me No, it just don't mean a thing f** that, homie You can call it what you want But it just don't mean a thing No, it just don't mean a thing f** that, homie You can come and wave your flag But it don't mean a thing to me No, it just don't mean a thing f** that, homie [Verse 1: Briggs] They said, "Hey, Briggs, pick a date" (Okay) "You know, one we can celebrate" (For sure) "Where we can come together (Yeah) Talk about the weather, call that Australia Day" I said, "How about March 8th?" (That's a good one) And we can do it on your Nan's grave (Got that, b**h?) We can piss up, piss on her face Get lit up and burn out like Mark Skaife They screaming, "love it or leave it" (Love it!) I got more reason to be here, if you could believe it Won't salute a constitution or who's underneath it Turn that flag to a noose, put a cease to your breathing I can't get in my whip, I get a ticket for that I get a DWB, and that's a 'Driving Whilst Black' I turn the other cheek, I get a knife in my back And I tell 'em it hurts, they say I overreact So f** that! (f** that!) [Hook: Dan Sultan & Briggs (Trials)] You can call it what you want But it just don't mean a thing No, it just don't mean a thing (Hey, Briggs!) f** that, homie You can come and wave your flag But it don't mean a thing to me No, it just don't mean a thing [Verse 2: Trials] I said celebrate the heretic anytime outside Jan 26 (Anytime) That's the date for them s**ers doing that s**er sh** (That's true!) That's that land-taking, flag-waving attitude Got this new Captain Cook dance to show you how to move (Move it) How you wanna raise a flag with a rifle To make us want to celebrate anything but survival? Nah, you watching tele for The Bachelor But wouldn't read a book about a f**load of ma**acres? (What?) I remember all the blood and what carried us (I remember) They remember twenty recipes for lamingtons (Yum) Yeah, their ancestors got a boat ride Both mine saw them coming until they both died f** celebrating days made of misery (f** that) While Aus still got the black history (That's true) And that shirt will get you banned from the Parliament If you ain't having a conversation, well then we starting it [Hook: Dan Sultan & Briggs] You can call it what you want But it just don't mean a thing No, it just don't mean a thing f** that, homie You can come and wave your flag But it don't mean a thing to me No, it just don't mean a thing! [Bridge: Dan Sultan & Trials] No, it just don't mean a thing Nah, it just don't mean a thing No, it just don't mean a thing Nah, it just don't mean a thing No, it just don't mean a thing Nah, it just don't mean a thing No, it just don't mean a thing Nah, it just don't mean a Motherf**ing thing No, it just don't mean a thing [Outro: Briggs & Trials] Wave it, wave it baby Wave it, wave it, eat the flag Wave it, wave it mama Wave that flaggy, wear the flag Wave it, wave it baby (What you gonna do?!) Wave it, wave it, wave it baby! Wave it, wave it mama Wave that flaggy
