lirik lagu party crashers - snake gully
[verse]
i met a traveler off the land, i heard his maiden cry
a tale of four short luckless legs of bronze
through the scrub nearby, a shattered village lies
a town a shattered boy long left behind
[pre~chorus]
i asked if he could point my way, he said two roads diverge
but you can only ask one question; take one road
i would have been content to go the road the traveler went
but i’m never going back to gundagai
[chorus]
there’s a track winding back
to the grace my mother lacked
the family ties that held my father’s tongue
there’s a statue in bronze
of a lonely cattle dog
who legend tells chose death over my lot
[verse]
sticking to the highway, heading east a hundred miles
to the town i hitched to when i first shot through
where a troubled halfback was told not to return
it was a golden curse is what i thought
[pre~chorus]
too often when the book is thrown
the men who wear the gowns are known
to take their eyes off rehabilitation
i heard the maiden cry
“he’s bound for gundagai”. i changed my mind
they should just send us back and close the roads
[chorus]
there’s a track winding back
to all the tact my mother lacked
and all his friends she finally drove away
the blue gums peel back
where his t~~th have lost their caps
but sharpening them never was his way
[verse]
up on sherwin’s flats there sits the old open~cut mine
where i laid low with the boss’s son
a red letter box beside a faded bandit sign
that dates back to election nineteen~ninety
[pre~chorus]
but not a peac~ck or a hawke
a channel~billed cuckoo recalls
an ugly song that charmed me as a boy
i’d sit upon the roof at night, stare at the sky and pray
some other parents would appear and take me back
[chorus]
there’s a track winding back
to the useless nags he backed
and all the cat’s p~ss that she put away
there’s an old bullock dray
where they promised bullet trains
where my old man lamely held on to his land
there’s a phone app for that
you can see where your train’s at
and it never ventures south of kagoshima
still the old man makes plans
like he stands on antique land
he’ll be bones before he sees a dollar
i can live with bad luck
but i won’t forgive that dog
i can live with bad luck
but i won’t forgive that dog
