Noisy mynas Bully the suburbs Out beyond the haze Seaside holiday houses Lay quiet as a grave Tombs of dreams past Wealth gone to waste The Australian dream is fading Stolen anyway And I'm never gonna lose my head To a setting sun I'm never gonna dream of things That just can't be done Pavement too hot to walk on barefoot So you hop and skip Prawns in wheelie bins marinate A cocktail of stink Bat swayin' on The power line Wings open in surrender This is how you die I'm never gonna lose my head To a setting sun I'm never gonna dream of things That just can't be done I'm never gonna say, never gonna do, never gonna be Anything more than what's expected of me It's true It's true It's true It's true I'm never gonna lose my head To a setting sun I'm never gonna dream of things That just can't be done I'm never gonna say, never gonna do, never gonna be Anything more than what's expected of me
