OUR
FLAG-(Rewrite)
I saw on the news one Australia
Day, some bloke burn our flag,
I tell you when he spit upon it;
I just about lost me rag.
Our flag is something that
once would cause the whole country to unite,
Now we allow people to spit
upon it so they can vent their spite.
I couldn’t help thinking of
all who had fought to keep this country free,
I thought about the service men that had made
the ultimate sacrifice for me.
The majority of us do not
forget those that paid the ultimate price,
But their comrades in arms
might ask why they made that sacrifice.
To burn and spit upon our
flag shows disrespect for those that went before,
Disrespect to all who fought
for our rights in the horrors of the war.
So was it all a waste? No
mate we thank you for what you done.
And like you we’d like to see
them flogged, the flag burning SCUM.
What about our athletes who
are so proud, as our flag is raised on high?
And when they play the
National anthem a tear forms in their eye.
Some Aussies said they wanted
flag burning to be against the law,
But the Prime Minister shook
his head and said “He wasn’t sure.”
I can’t believe anyone is
allowed to desecrate our national flag;
But to see them spit upon it;
well my anger makes me want to gag.
The journalists don’t help
when they put these Wankers on the news,
Let me tell you; flag burning
is no way for anyone to air their views.
They should be locked up; I
don’t think they’ll be any loss;
I’ll salute the service men
and I’m proud of the Southern Cross.
No one should be aloud to
burn the flag under which so many died,
The government must pass a
law and restore some ANZAC pride.
