We don't speak the old language much no more.
No hey mate
No G'day
There was a time when they'd take your kids to be re-schooled
To learn the alien lingo
To learn how dumb we were
Not dumb anymore though
They've trained us up they have
Now I know those old humans were bad
Just stupid and lazy
Our parents and theirs
Worthless
Now we're part of New Earth
Owned and conquered.
All one
Won over
We're part of them now
And we celebrate
The day the starships came
Destroyed our culture
Way of Life
Everything
But we're good now, eh?
We celebrate
We ain't dumb no more.
