It Doesn’t Matter to Me Songtext
von Redgum

I′m in the RSL, I joined the Lions club Friday
My support of sport is thought of highly
I'm a Class 6 clerk in the PCD
And who the hell is Ayatollah Khomeni?

It doesn′t matter to me
It doesn't matter to me
I'll sit home and watch you all on my colour TV

Well I never look further than my own back door
Except when wrapped up in my Commodore
I was reading Nostradamus or 1984
I ran out of Valium and then I got bored

It doesn′t matter to me
It doesn′t matter to me
I'll sit home and watch you all on my colour TV

Well I prune in June and I plant in October
And I write to the council when a sign gets knocked over
I always say the Channel 10 news is best
Especially when the weather girl wears a low cut dress


It doesn′t matter to me
It doesn't matter to me
I′ll sit home and watch you all on my colour TV

Well, my wife ran off to a Women's Shelter
She didn′t understand me or why I had to belt her
My daughter carries candles for the festival of light
The fridge is full of beer and I'm all right

It doesn't matter to me
It doesn′t matter to me
I′ll sit home and watch you all on my colour TV

My son's gone off to the Eastern war
And Killen wrote a letter explaining what for
It′s the very first job the boy's ever held
He′ll learn a good trade while he sees the world

It doesn't matter to me
It doesn′t matter to me
I'll sit home and watch you all on my colour TV

I'm watching colour TV
Thanking god it′s not me
OPEC, Exxon and ITT
Presenting World War Three.
