[Chorus: Brendon Boney]
There's nothing I would rather be
Than to be an Aborigine
And watch you take my precious land away
For nothing gives me greater joy
Than to watch you fill each girl and boy
With superficial, existential shit
[Verse: Brendon Boney]
Now you may think I'm cheeky
But I'd be satisfied
To rebuild your convict ships
And sail them on the tide
[Chorus: Brendon Boney]
There's nothing I would rather be
Than to be an Aborigine
And dream of just what heaven must be like
Where moth and rust do not corrupt
When I die, I know I'll be going up
'Cause you know that I've had my hell on Earth
[Bridge: Brendon Boney & Geoffrey Rush]
You gave us ten commandments
We know we are informed
Judgement day is coming
We're always being warned
[Chorus: Brendon Boney]
There's nothing I would rather be
Than to be an Aborigine
And watch you take my precious land away
And watch you take my precious land away
