When the convicts arrived in Australia
The soldiers didn't have a lot to do
So for entertainment they made the convicts dance
While the soldiers piped a tune
It was the British domination quickstep
Quick step up your work, listen to the beat
They've got the power in their hands
And the load off their feet
100 years later, the governor was still on his seat
The peopl were farming and mining
The cockies ate the chaff
While the squatters ate the wheat
Two World Wars later, Rule Britannia began to die
Pig Iron Bob rocked the cradle
Yankee Doodle was the nation's lullaby
It's the yankee domination quickstep
Quick step up your work, listen to the beat
They've got the power in their hands
And the load off their feet
It's now the foreign domination quickstep
Quick step up your work, listen to the beat
They've got the power in their hands
And the load off their feet
