augie march - definitive history lyrics

Loading...

definitive history, splinters of foundation
weaving of our horrors
into pig silks full of glory holes
and fabrics of contrition

curtsey to your betters
who picked you for a nothing, tried to knock out your stuffing
bold in their beers, straw between their ears

the same smug expression, same false cheer
same air of predation –
“stranger welcome…”
just not here, just not here, just not here

all men are mice, all men are mice
it doesn’t pay to be nice
take all before you
definitive history

pay respect to the common folk, it’s an obligation
let common sense commandeer you
take up all the hard work
steer your thoughts in a circle jerk

make abominable children, vicious little animals
reared up like pit bull dogs
by the ordinary australians…
o one for the mother, one for the dad
one for treasurer, one for the plasma screen, and don’t forget
the developer’s dream
a tumour for them all in the belly of the sprawl –

definitive history

two young men took a chinese girl
early one thursday morning
brick to her head and a cord round her neck
hands on her body…

drowned her in a bathtub, rolled her in a sheet
dumped her in the river
tragedy crowed the newspaper letters…
“in our own backyard!”
in our own backyard
oh how could it be with all we’ve taught them?

o one for the mother, one for the dad
one for treasurer, one for the plasma screen, and don’t forget
the developer’s dream
a tumour for them all in the belly of the sprawl

o one for the mother, one for the dad
one for treasurer, one for the plasma screen, and don’t forget
the developer’s dream
a plot to bury them all at the edge of the sprawl –
definitive history
