lyrics

We don’t know where we’re going but we’re always home

Cruisin’ down The Brand, nah I’ll take the coastal route.
Drinking Brownes Mocha Chill, pouch of Champion Ruby.
The sun is rising, I taste the freedom,
Taste the tobacco, that delicious toxic smoke.
I’m runnin’ low on gas, stop in at a servo,
I’ve got $40 left – put it all in my car.
Back out on the highway,
Cruisin’ in my Econovan ‘Bruce’
With my back to you, smoking ciggies and driving

We don’t know where we’re going but we’re always home

Land at Coronation Beach, that place is fucked!
It’s full of wasps! And it’s full of bees!
Don’t know what I’m doing here! I don’t even windsurf!
Don’t know what I’m doing here surrounded by these fucking hippies!
Back out on the highway and over the hill I see Kalbarri.
The sun is falling now, in the blues and oranges I see your eyes.
And when I see those colours, I realise that I am finally free from your piercing stares
I’m free from your manipulation, I’m free from your stupid haircut and your perfect white teeth
I’m free from you looking at me in that tone.
I don’t want you in my life anymore; I don’t want you injecting yourself into my veins anymore!
And you to, my workplace, stop fucking riding me, you’ve been riding me for so fucking long. Fuck occupational health and safety, fuck your toolbox meetings, fuck your building sites, fuck your Microsoft outlook email bullshit fuck. I wasted so much time, four years! Four years! Four long years with you! Fuck you and your PPE and your fucking hard hats and your warning labels and your JSAs and your Microsoft calendar! Fuck you and your prestart checks and your prestart meetings and your fucking forklifts. And to my boss, I’m so free from all of it.
I’m free from your fucking business meetings
