catholic guilt - lucky country lyrics
[verse 1]
a hundred bodies
in sp_ce wide enough for a ghost
desperate souls hunkered down
beneath the decks of a leaking boat
the myth of freedom keeps spirits afloat
a dangerous passage taken in the name of misguided hope
[verse 2]
on the horizon their salvations flag appears
the welcoming party speaks in an accent
foreign to their ears
but the tone is universal, it’s one they’ve come to know
although they made it to these waters, they’ll never call them home
[chorus]
oh, it’s what we’re taught to do
deny the needs of the many
protect wants of a few
that’s what we’re taught to do
[verse 3]
tent city set up in the middle of the cbd
refuge for all those living outside of the dream
pretend you cannot hear their pleas
be sure to avert your eyes, maybe spare some coins
to wipe your conscience clean, remain comfortable in the lie
[verse 4]
these aren’t our values
no i was brought up to believe
that we had plenty of plains to share with those who came across the seas
that if a neighbour was in trouble, we’d all chip in and help them out
not legislate a loophole or leave it someone else
[chorus]
oh, it’s what we’re taught to do
deny the needs of the many
protect the wants of a few
that’s what we’re taught to do
it’s what we’re teaching our children too
it’s what we’re taught to do
[bridge]
pacific waters are no place for children’s graves
and detention centres aren’t a place for their living ghosts
no citizen of this country should be without a home
or be demonized for not being able to afford one of their own
[chorus]
oh, it’s what we’re taught to do
deny the needs of the many
protect the wants of a few
that’s what we’re taught to do
it’s what we’re teaching our children too
it’s what we’re taught to do
