Domination Quickstep Songtext
von Redgum

When the convicts arrived in Australia
The soldiers didn′t have a lot to do
So for entertainment they made the convicts dance
While the soldiers piped a tune

It was the British domination quickstep
Quick step up your work, listen to the beat
They've got the power in their hands
And the load off their feet


100 years later, the governor was still on his seat
The peopl were farming and mining
The cockies ate the chaff
While the squatters ate the wheat

Two World Wars later, Rule Britannia began to die
Pig Iron Bob rocked the cradle
Yankee Doodle was the nation′s lullaby

It's the yankee domination quickstep
Quick step up your work, listen to the beat
They've got the power in their hands
And the load off their feet

It′s now the foreign domination quickstep
Quick step up your work, listen to the beat
They′ve got the power in their hands
And the load off their feet
