Domination Quickstep Songtext

Domination Quickstep Songtext
When the convicts arrived in Australia
The soldiers didn′t have a lot to do
And so for entertainment
They made the convicts dance
While the soldiers piped the tune
It was the British Domination Quickstep
Quick, step up your work, listen to the beat
They got the power in their hands
And the load off their feet
One hundred years later
The governor was still on his seat
The people were farming and mining
The cockies ate the jar
While the squatters ate the wheat
It was the British Domination Quickstep
Quick, step up your work, listen to the beat
They got the power in their hands
And the load off their feet
Two world wars later
Rule Britannia began to die
Pig iron and barb rocked the cradle
Yankee Doodle was the nation's lullaby
It′s now the Yankee Domination Quickstep
Quick, step up your work, listen to the beat
They got the power in their hands
And the load off their feet
It's the Foreign Domination Quickstep
Quick, step up your work, listen to the beat
They got the power in their hands
And the load off their feet
The soldiers didn′t have a lot to do
And so for entertainment
They made the convicts dance
While the soldiers piped the tune
It was the British Domination Quickstep
Quick, step up your work, listen to the beat
They got the power in their hands
And the load off their feet
One hundred years later
The governor was still on his seat
The people were farming and mining
The cockies ate the jar
While the squatters ate the wheat
It was the British Domination Quickstep
Quick, step up your work, listen to the beat
They got the power in their hands
And the load off their feet
Two world wars later
Rule Britannia began to die
Pig iron and barb rocked the cradle
Yankee Doodle was the nation's lullaby
It′s now the Yankee Domination Quickstep
Quick, step up your work, listen to the beat
They got the power in their hands
And the load off their feet
It's the Foreign Domination Quickstep
Quick, step up your work, listen to the beat
They got the power in their hands
And the load off their feet
