A joint effort, a celebration, we’re promoting community as we see it, as every generation does. It marks the emergence of Jodie Cockatoo Creed who’s been with us since 1994, promoting her, giving her some space and helping to develop her own style as in developing another artist.
[Chorus]
Community life
Community life
[Verse 1]
Ever wondered where you come from
Who you are and where you've been
Ever looked into the mirror
Just to see your mothers' eyes
[Pre-Chorus]
Everybody talking 'bout a perfect situation
Everybody talking 'bout a family celebration
Everybody talking 'bout a perfect situation
Everybody talking 'bout a family celebration
[Chorus]
Community life
Community life
Community life
Community life
[Verse 2]
There is too much hardship
What can we do
Side by side
We'll make ends meet
Ever looked into the water
Just to see your fathers' eyes
[Pre-Chorus]
Everybody talking 'bout a perfect situation
Everybody talking 'bout a family celebration
Everybody talking 'bout a perfect situation
Everybody talking 'bout a family celebration
[Chorus]
Community life
Community life
Community life
Community life
[Pre-Chorus]
Talking 'bout a perfect situation
Talking 'bout a family celebration
Everybody talking 'bout a perfect situation
Everybody talking 'bout a family celebration
Everybody talking 'bout a perfect situation
Everybody talking 'bout a family celebration
[Chorus]
Community life
Community life
Community life
[Outro]
Community life (Everybody)
Community life (Everybody)
Community life (Everybody)
Community life (Everybody)
Community life (Everybody)
Community life (Everybody)
