It seems that in God's call
That it was decided not for all
For some shall be left-handed
But most will be right commanded

In the 1970s Malcolm Frazer
The Australian Prime Minister
Gave the Lebanese a concession
Where we let in migration

We should look to bring the world together
To heal the wounds that hurt and be untethered
The things that make us different from each other
Should bring diversity and not separation from another

It is hard sometimes to know what to think
To be put in a position that really stinks
We want to make a world that is safe
I see Syrians refugees leaving their homes in grief
...
I dreamed of today
When it was yesterday
And tomorrow seemed
A life away in time
...
Dancing in circles is what we do
When wanting to find our way through
Sometimes our partners will change
As others will be met in our exchange

To keep the roads safe in a heavier traffic toll
And when the sun went down in the outback sky
There was a canopy of a million stars on high

I like sausages on bread
Eating them with tomato sauce instead
Of vegetables on my plate
I remember the barbecues when I couldn't wait
...
Fighter pilots who on returning to their base
Would fly over the airfield in a flying grace
As they were young men who lived on the edge
To show off to their squadron they would pledge
...
Don't waste the blue sky and sun
The summer has only begun
Go outside a breath the fresh air
Will mean that you will be free of care
