[Verse 1] 1788, down Sydney Cove First boat people land And they said, "Sorry, boys, our gain's your loss We're gonna steal your land And if you break our new British law For sure you're gonna hang Or work your life like our convicts With a chain on your neck and hands" [Chorus] And they taught us Whoa-oh, black woman, thou shalt not steal I said, hey-ayy, black man, thou shalt not steal We're gonna civilise black barbaric lives Teach you how to kneel But your history couldn't hide genocide The hypocrisy to us was real For your Jesus said you're supposed to give The oppressed a better deal We say to you, "Yes, our land thou shalt not steal Whoa, yeah, our land you'd better heal" [Verse 2] Well, your science and technology Hey! You can make a nuclear bomb Development has increased its size Three million megatons And if you think that's progress I suggest your reasoning is unsound For you shoulda found out long ago You best keep it in the ground [Chorus] And they taught us Whoa-oh, black woman, thou shalt not steal I said, hey, yeah, black man, thou shalt not steal We're gonna civilise your black barbaric lives And we teach you how to kneel But your history couldn't hide the genocide The hypocrisy to us was real For your Jesus said you're supposed to give The oppressed a better deal We say to you, "Yes, white man, thou shalt not steal Whoa, yeah, our land you'd better heal" [Verse 3] Well, Job and me and Jesus sittin' Underneath that Indooroopilly bridge Watchin' that blazin' sun go down Behind the tall-treed mountain ridge The land's our heritage and spirit here The rightful culture's black And we're sittin' here just wonderin' When we're gonna get that land back [Chorus] They taught us Whoa-oh, black woman, thou shalt not steal I said, hey, yeah, black man, thou shalt not steal We're gonna civilise your black barbaric lives And we teach you how to kneel But your history couldn't hide the genocide The hypocrisy to us was real For your Jesus said you're supposed to give The oppressed a better deal We say to you, "Yes, white man, thou shalt not steal Whoa, yeah, our land you'd better heal" [Verse 4] Well, you talk of conservation Keep the forest pristine green But in two hundred years, your materialism Has stripped the forests clean And a racist's a contradiction That's understood by none, mostly Their left hand holds a bible Their right hand holds a gun [Chorus] And they taught us Whoa-oh, black woman, thou shalt not steal I said, hey, yeah, black man, thou shalt not steal We're gonna civilise your black barbaric lives And we teach you how to kneel But your history couldn't hide the genocide The hypocrisy to us was real For your Jesus said you're supposed to give The oppressed a better deal We say to you, "Yes, white man, thou shalt not steal Whoa, yeah, our land you'd better heal [Outro] Whoa, yeah, white man, though shalt not steal Oh, yeah, our land you'd better heal"Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
