Welcome the city of the rowdy one punch
where young punks act up and rumble in pubs
under the thumb, a big bunch of cumbersome thugs
appetite for destruction and trafficking drugs
they're carrying guns like Judge Dred don't get em upset
protect ya from the boogie man under ya bunk bed
these unread young men behave like the un-dead
stumbling in numbers drunk looking to bump heads
til the streets run red with bloodshed so no one can hurt you
police reserve the right to search you
lock out curfews highest virtues
obey their command or face the capsicum perfume
watching from birds view there's only a slight chance
of Sydney not becoming some Orwellian nightmare
privileged white man living the life where
the rest of us are given middle fingers to Mike Baird
New South Wales you gone soft
no wonder we cant win a state of origin long shot
i think were better off playing soccer or hop scotch
you cant put a foot right walking in odd socks
Im not saying bing back the biff
Im saying i don't think a politician has the right
to say when i can buy a drink
Sydney ain't that a bitch?
as if the cost of living not enough
to make the public fire up and crack the shits


It's a police state
these days MC's say
let the beat play for Pete's sake
let peace reign
and decrease hate
DJ's we need breaks
from the heat wave
let peace reign for Pete's sake


Bumper to bumper traffic
constantly struck in the static
cabies are driven erratic
bus full of footy fanatics
had it with trains planes and automobiles
walking to work to save cant afford any wheels
all on my bills and rent before i order a meal
for a mortgage i still need a quarter a mill
sure I can steal but id prefer to play by the rules
even though they're cutting funds to Tafes and public schools
raising revenue like parking rangers waiting to swoop
from the roof tops they're watching u and clocking your moves
on some child proof city safety first kiddies
its a nanny state but teachers and nurses paid shitty
workers take sickies surf and blaze sticky
rich middle aged biddies buy perfect fake titties
politicians hate hippies citizens stay busy
ignorant to the way 90% of the worlds living

We treat neighbors like complete strangers heaps dangerous,
teenagers in the streets skating
spray painters on trains dogs at each station
fair evasion for gods sake police tazers,
cops target wogs, bikies, East Asians
Isis on the front page of each paper
Ice vapors through pipes got your mind crazy
time racing the clock God we need saving
see Australia you sound racist
when you say you wanna stop the boats immigration
from foreign non white nations
proper conversations bout stopping conservation
chopping down the forests for our growing population
illegal demonstrations won't be tolerated
protesters get arrested guilty by association
ongoing operations no negotiations
your votes appreciated thanks for your cooperation.
