lirik lagu the bushwackers - republic day
[verse 1]
it’s not the place it used to be when we looked to the monarchy
to tell us how our lives could be, and nothing’s changed today
we know they’ve always been our friend, time to cut our ties with them
the only question now is when we hold republic day
[chorus]
on republic day, on republic day
when it’s all been done and we’ve had our say
and we all agree there’s a better way
i’ll see you on republic day
i’ll see you on republic day
[verse 2]
we fought and died in all her wars, fodder for a futile cause
thousands lost on foreign shores, a future blown away
australia flung her arms out wide, in we came, a human tide
embracing our new home with pride and we’re all here to stay
[chorus]
on republic day, on republic day
when it’s all been done and we’ve had our say
and we’ve all agreed there’s a better way
i’ll see you on republic day
i’ll see you on republic day
[verse 3]
for a nation forged in fire and blood
“sorry” doesn’t seem enough
we’re part of you and you’re part of us
together we’ll find a way
[chorus]
on republic day, on republic day
when it’s all been done and we’ve had our say
and we’ve all agreed there’s a better way
i’ll see you on republic day
i’ll see you on republic day
[verse 4]
we’ll meet together at the gate, joined as one upon that date
welcome our own head of state on that historic day
we’ll celebrate diversity, sacrifice and history
of the nation that we’ve come to be
on that republic day
[chorus]
on republic day, on republic day
when it’s all been done and we’ve had our say
and we all agree there’s a better way
i’ll see you on republic day
on republic day, on republic day
when it’s all been done and we’ve had our say
and we all agree there’s a better way
i’ll see you on republic day
[outro]
shake your hand on republic day
dance with you on republic day
