Savages – 4th April 1991

I’ve just started to flower
Let’s dance to celebrate
My people have come together
Across the lands they came

Our joy runs through the earth
And in return it feeds us
With all the wealth
That we could ever wish

We do not pay in money
We know we’ll pay in blood

Then the nations came
To colonise the world
The prize was clearly seen
But not so the price

Now I no longer flower
You danced across my grave

Your dividing line grows further all the time
You cannot own the land no matter your demand
You cannot own the land no matter your demand
One day you will pay – blood
