Amnesia Everybody Songtext
von Chasing Ghosts

Let me tell you ′bout the time
When the warriors held strong
They dodged the lead of colonial cops
Defending where they belonged

But if there isn't anyone to tell you
If there isn′t anyone who'll say
I shouldn't be the one to tell you
But a debt must be paid
Amnesia everybody

Everything is fine
It′s all A-Okay
Everything is fine
Just another sunny day

Let me tell you ′bout the time
The Gungabuls came through
They led the killings and wrote the books
But justice we've never known


There should′ve been someone to tell you
There should've been someone to say
Protecting polished statues
While they lie to your face
Amnesia everybody

Everything is fine
It′s all A-Okay
Everything is fine
Just another sunny day

The ones they couldn't kill, we come from
They never took their eyes off a white man′s gun
But you're still here
And we're still here

(IF you wanna find me)

I′m at the back of the apartment (Woah-oh)
Cleaning up that Footscray (Woah-oh)
I walk around with my chin held high
First Nations always, Koori Pride

At the back of the apartment (Woah-oh)
Cleaning up that Footscray (Woah-oh)
I walk around with my chin held high
Living in west Naarm and that′s my life


Everything's not fine
It′s never been okay
I think it's time
Somebody′s gotta say

Why didn't they teach you? You know
Why didn′t they teach you? You know
Why didn't they teach you? You know
