Lyrics

Older than Kosciusko
 Darwin down to Alice Springs
 Dealers in the clearing house
 The settlements explode
 High up in the homelands
 Miners drive across the land
 Encounter no resistance
 When the people block the road
 Older than Kosciusko
 Dry white seasons years ago
 Darkness over Charleville
 The fires begin to grow
 No end to the hostility
 Now they wanna be somewhere else
 No stranger to brutality
 Now they'd like to be someone else
 Older than Kosciusko
 Driven back to Alice Springs
 Endless storm and struggle
 Marks the spirit of the age
 High up in the homelands
 Celebration 'cross the land
 Builds up like a cyclone
 Now the fires begin to rage
 No end to the hostility
 Now they wanna be somewhere else
 No stranger to brutality
 Now they'd like to be someone else
 Call off the ultimatum
 No, don't turn away
 Call off the ultimatum until yesterday
 Call off the ultimatum
 No, don't turn away
 Bind up the brokenhearted
 No, don't turn away
 Call off the ultimatum until yesterday
 No end to the hostility
 Now they wanna be somewhere else
 No stranger to brutality
 Now they'd like to be someone else
 No end to the hostility
 Now they wanna be somewhere
