The Bedroom Philosopher - Sudanese lyrics

I come from a place very far away Footscray I moved there to escape a place of great poverty and violence Collingwood I like Melbourne but feel that I am judged by my colour The colour of my scarf I went with red and black But it is the same here as in my homeland No one likes the bombers I recently gained permanent residency Kevin Rudd has made the process more relaxed I had to learn about crabsticks The word reckon And listen to You Am I's early stuff I am trying to understand Australian culture My friend described it as basically America With Milo and possums There are many misconceptions about my continent If we see a coke bottle we don't freak out And no animals are voiced by Chris Rock I must get used to the language differences here A drumstick is an icecream A pot is a beer And god is a disgraced footballer Who knew? I also have some trouble with predictive text I tried to text my relative and said hello aunt But it came out very different I watched Baz Luhman's Australia But I learned more from The Castle One day I hope to go to Bonnie Doon It is not easy getting used to a new home But if home is where the heart is Then I wear my heart on my sleeve So everyone is welcome to visit
