MIK's Reaction - Pemulwuy

 
0
Copied!
Pemulwuy was a Bidjigal man, of the Eora nation
A resistance fighter, how come you never heard of him before?
On the English invaders, he brought his wrath down hard
Don’t be fooled, this was Australia’s first ever war

A guerilla fighter who tried in vain, to lead his people against the pain
But when you colonise, you tend to despise the people whose land you steal

Oh Pemulwuy, Oh Pemulwuy

You claim this land as terra nullis
There are no peoplе in this desert sauna
What about them black fеlla’s?
Why, they’re not people, they’re just fauna

Ah, but Pemulwuy didn’t see it that way
He said you’re stealing our land
And lead his men on guerilla raids
And danced with the Clever Man

Pemulwuy, Oh Pemulwuy

In June of 1802 they finally shot Pemulwuy dead
Those sons of bitches mowed him down and sent Joseph Banks his head
Then proceeded to remove these pesky blacks, out-manned and outgunned
And continued with the genocide, killing Mother’s Daughter’s and Son’s
Pemulwuy, Oh Pemulwuy

A guerilla fighter who tried in vain, to lead his people against the pain
But when you colonise, you tend to despise the people whose land you steal

Pemulwuy, Oh Pemulwuy, Oh Pemulwuy
