Текст песни Misc Unsigned Bands - Please Stop - Land Of Queen

"Land of Queen" by Please Stop https://soundcloud.com/please-stop-band

In the style of Stephen Lynch's "Tennessee" - adapted for Queensland Australia

  x4

I seen Mountains Blue and desert plains
cities old and forests green
But wherever I go my heart aches
For the sunny Land of Queen

Oh . . come with me
where the Bundy flows like wine
And the meth labs are divine
Oh . . I wanna be
where the mango trees sway
picked by poor backpacking slaves
In the Land of Queen

It's a place where all the canetoads dwell
and the bogan folk run free
where all the children can spell Four X well
but cannot spell Land or Queen

Oh . . come with me
where every paddock's full of roos
no-one's ever seen a Jew
Oh . . I wanna be
where the cops are on the take
and every dunny has a snake
in the Land of Queen

   /    /      /   

Oh . . come with me
where Pauline Hanson shouts
that if you're brown you'd best get out
Oh . . I wanna be
where daylight savings died
and all the hippies hate flouride
in the Land of Queen

Home of Cathy Freeman's feet of gold
Barry Gibb and stars galore
I'm not saying it's a shithole
but... they don't live there anymore

Oh . . I want to see
where the beaches are the best
but the Health system's a mess
Oh . . come with me
where every second car's a ute
that's where the classy couples root
in the Land of Queen
oh . . in the Land of Queen
