angus gill - sounds of then (this is australia) lyrics

[verse 1]
i think i hear the sounds of then and people talking
the scenes recalled by minute movement
and songs, they fall from the backing tape
that certain texture, that certain smell

[verse 2]
to lie in sweat on familiar sheets
in brick veneer on financed beds
in a room of silent hardieflex
that certain texture, that certain smell

[pre+chorus]
brings home the heavy days
brings home the nighttime swell

[chorus]
out on the patio, we’d sit
and the humidity we’d breathe
we’d watch the lightning crack over cane fields
laugh and think, “this is australia”

[verse 3]
the block is awkward, it faces west
with long diagonals, sloping too
in the distance, through the heat haze
in convoys of silence, the cattle graze
[pre+chorus]
that certain texture, that certain beat
brings forth the nighttime heat

[chorus]
out on the patio, we’d sit
and the humidity we’d breathe
we’d watch the lightning crack over cane fields
laugh and think that this is australia

[verse 4]
to lie in sweat on familiar sheets
in brick veneer on financed beds
in a room of silent hardieflex
that certain texture, that certain smell

[pre+chorus]
brings forth the heavy days
brings forth the nighttime swell, cha+kow

[chorus]
out on the patio, we’d sit
and the humidity we’d breathe
we’d watch the lightning crack over cane fields
laugh and think, “this is australia”
out on the patio, we’d sit
and the humidity we’d breathe
we’d watch the lightning crack over cane fields
laugh and think, “this is australia”
[outro]
this is australia
this is australia
this is australia
check it out (check it out)
yeah, check it out
