company b – ma(m)bo lyrics
paul keating:
there’s a tale i heard
of an island man
tough and undeterred, he said “haven’t you heard?
this land – our land!”
“we belong”
that’s what the high court said
so when you sing this song, you gotta sing it for ed.
for eddie.

and if we follow this philosophy
demand a land beyond compare
then girt by faith and generosity
we’ll all combine to redefine a beauty rich and rare
in joyful strains then let us sing…
