Shame

You're taking our babies away
You're taking our dignity away
You're taking our hearts from our chest
You're taking our freedom again
Never a chance to rebuild our pride
Never a chance to sit together as black and white
No chance to really let old people die
Never a chance to change direction and unite

And how far shall we walk?
And how far shall we crawl?
How many tears must the government
Need to hit our soil, two hundred
Years now has passed, we said sorry
But really what was the point?
Still using your lies to dominate
And to this world we are shame

Shame, shame, shame, shame
Shame, shame, shame, shame
Shame, shame, shame, shame, Australia
Shame, shame, shame, shame
Still using your lies to dominate
And to this world we are shamed

And how far shall we walk?
How far shall we crawl?
How many tears must the government
Need to hit our soil, two hundred
Years now has passed, we said sorry
But really what was the point?
Still using your lies to dominate
And to this world we are shame

Shame, shame, shame, shame
Shame, shame, shame, shame
Shame, shame, shame, shame, Australia
Shame, shame, shame, shame
Still using your lies to dominate
And to this world we are shame

Stand strong, keep the fire burning
Stick together, gotta keep the wheels turning
Forcing companies to stand aside
Forcing government to recognize the power of this drive, yeah

Stand strong, keep the fire burning
And stick together, gotta keep the wheels turning
We're forcing companies to stand aside
Forcing government to recognize the power of this drive, yeah

Stand strong, keep the fire burning
Stick together, gotta keep the wheels turning
Forcing companies to stand aside
Forcing government to recognize the power

Shame, shame, shame, shame
Shame, shame, shame, shame
Shame, shame, shame, shame, Australia
Shame, shame, shame, shame
Still using your lies to dominate
And to this world we are shame
