When Cook stuck the sign into Botany sands
To bequeath to England all these southern lands
What the Gouries saw from the ridges above
Was the sign of war, not of love
The first Australia Day 1788
The rum was passed around to celebrate
Commemoration of the day
Their lands were taken away
Saddest Day
Saddest Day
Saddest Day
When Abbott with his pumped ego so grand
Looked down his nose at the Aboriginal Tent Embassy
In his squeaky clean world, it just doesn't look right
Poverty should be kept well out of sight
It was Australia Day holiday
His satirical remark caused a protest to embark
It turned rowdy and caused him and the PM
To quickly depart
Commemoration of the day
Their lands were taken away
Saddest Day
Saddest Day
Saddest Day
