[00:00:00] The Great Australian Dream - Graeme Connors

[00:00:00] Written by：Graeme Connors

[00:00:13] I turned west in search of something I'd never seen before

[00:00:21] The kind of vision splendid banjo saw

[00:00:27] With a fresh roll in my camera and an eye for things unique

[00:00:35] I left my mobile phone at home and went outback for a week

[00:00:42] I stood beneath the tree of knowledge let my imagination run

[00:00:50] Way back to the great shearer's strike of '91

[00:00:56] As I quietly contemplated all that tragic history

[00:01:03] A tour bus full of kids from the city pulled up in front of me

[00:01:12] And its baseball caps on backwards like they wear 'em in LA

[00:01:19] Coca Cola Nike shoes and Oakley shades

[00:01:25] Here in the middle of the heartland I feel I'm caught between

[00:01:32] Beverley hills 90210 and the great Australian dream

[00:01:51] Thought I'd try a new direction down the barcoo headed south

[00:01:57] To the town built round the black stump and jacky howe

[00:02:05] But it was back on course next morning to the stockman's hall of fame

[00:02:11] Where I traced the steps of the pioneers and ran into those kids again

[00:02:20] With baseball caps on backwards like they wear 'em in LA

[00:02:27] Coca Cola Nike shoes and Oakley shades

[00:02:34] In the midst of myth and legend again I'm caught between

[00:02:41] Beverley hills 90210 and the great Australian dream

[00:02:59] I set out to find the spirit the inspiration for john flynn

[00:03:06] Walked the streets where fysh and mcguiness gave the kangaroo its wings

[00:03:13] But each time I thought I'd found it what makes us who we are

[00:03:20] That bus pulls up beside me and the kids get out yeah the kids get out

[00:03:30] And its baseball caps on backwards like they wear 'em in LA

[00:03:38] Coca Cola Nike shoes and Oakley shades

[00:03:44] So I figure there's an answer somewhere in between

[00:03:51] Beverley hills 90210 and the great Australian dream

[00:04:02] Lookin' for an answer

[00:04:08] To the great Australian dream

[00:04:22] There's gotta be an answer

[00:04:29] To the great Australian dream
