No more boomerang

Une chanson marrante... mais pas tant que ça en y réfléchissant bien :
No more boomerang no more spear,
Now we're all civilised colour bar and beer,
No more corroboree gay dance and din,
Now we got movies and pay to go in.
Lay down the stone axe take up the steel,
Work like a nigger for a white man's meal,
No more boomerang no more spear,
Now all civilised colour bar and beer,
Bunyip he finish got now instead,
White-fella bunyip call him red.
No more sharing what the hunter brings,
Now we work for money and pay it back for things,
No more boomerang no more spear,
Now all civilised colour bar and beer,
Lay down the woomera, lay down the waddy,
No we got atom bomb. End everybody.
No more boomerang no more spear,
Now all civilised colour bar and beer.
Il s'agit d'une reprise d'une chanson des 80's de Oodgeroo Noonuccal, aka Kath Walker, une poète, artiste, enseignante et activiste politique Aborigène.
