about

This song was written in response to successive Australian government's treatment of refugees seeking asylum in Australia.

On and on and on we go...

lyrics

I could see the stranger on the shore
I could hear the call to close the door
I could hear them clever with their words
There's something going on...

I could see the children at the wall
I could see them staring back to shore
I could hear them sell their story short
There's something going on...

On and on and on we go....

I could see the writing on the wall
I could hear the voices down the hall
I could hear a story never told
There's something going on...

I could see them running from the war
I could see them wanting something more
I could see us turn our backs to all
There's something going on...

On and on and on we go...
