Mark Callaghan – Do It Rite

Mark Callaghan – Do It Rite Lyrics

Artist: Mark Callaghan
Song: Do It Rite

I am drawn by your rightful indignation
By your endless frustration to the sadness in your heart
Forty thousand years between the dreaming and the waking
To the grey suburban shadows of the ugly new day’s dawn

The western sun is leeching, fades to white
Like the seeping of the tombs all filled with lime
We still don’t get the message
Though we’ve been learning painful lessons

For such a long, long time
We gotta do it right, we gotta get it right
We gotta do it right, we gotta get it right
On the fringe of the mantle of the madness

Live the eldest children
Of this timeless noble land
Dispossessed by trinkets and the promise of salvation
They have seen a paradise crumble in our hands

We still don’t get the picture
Though we’ve taken all the paintings
And retraced every line
Take it where you find it

Has been the rule of blind men
For such a long, long time
We gotta do it right, we gotta get it right
We gotta do it right, we gotta get it right

I said yeah, yeah, do it right
Now is the time for us all to do it right
Now at last the treaty men are coming
Though there are some among us

Who would not have it so
They don’t realise that there can be no solution
While their heads are buried in stolen borrowed sand
It’s time to face the issue, can’t keep praying it’ll miss you

These wheels will always grind
Believe me when I tell you
It’ll work out so much better
If we can get it right this time

We gotta do it right, we gotta get it right
We gotta do it right, we gotta get it right
We gotta do it right, we gotta get it right
We gotta do it right, we gotta get it right

I said yeah, yeah, do it right
Now is the time for us all to do it right
