The Tongue - Australian Dreaming lyrics

[Verse 1] Woke up fresh from the deepest sleep Had a vision last night that I wanted to keep Cause I saw a new world, new ways of being Let me tell you bout the dream and what I been seeing Picture a positive headline in your morning paper Cops that breath deep instead of popping the taser A nurse and a teacher, paid like a banker A ban on fake tan, the tears of a wa*ker Alan Jones unemployed sunk like an anchor A redneck dancing with a girl from Sri Lanka Reggae on the radio, weed from the doctor Politician break a promise he getting locked up Free education like back in the 80's Treating refugees like we were related This country's amazing but we can make it better Some say "It'll never change", I never say never [Hook] My brother said "let it go" But my mamma said "don't stop believing" Cause I liked what I saw when I closed my eyes Back in my Australian dreaming My friends say "Tonguey let it go" But my girl says "Don't stop believing" If you like what you see when you close those eyes Gotta keep on Australian dreaming [Verse 2] I see beds for the homeless, and end of the war On d**, gay love, peace and the poor A workday that finishes at half-past four Laws against Nickleback strictly enforced No hate for a m**m, unless he's a prick No love for a priest that be funny with the kids Money for my music, mangos in the fridge A million man march across the Harbour Bridge Picture every last poker machine in the tip Australian dreaming, man what a trip Solar power meaning no more bills No coal steam gas, shady Government deals No ketamine mixed in my ecstasy pill And the white-black gap getting closed for real Yeah I saw it in my sleep but I know that we can do it It's more than a dream if we start to pursue it [Hook] [Bridge Caiti Baker] You know what you have seen inside your mind You know that we can make it better No limit to your dreams, just close your eyes Wake up and change the world forever [Hook]
