unlawfulness one feels<br \/>\nThe unwritten constitution<br \/>\nThe rebellion it reveals<\/p>\n<p>The outback is at night<br \/>\nA wilderness of woes<br \/>\nWhen you hammer down the highway<br \/>\nEverything just goes<br \/>\nThe red dust it gets everywhere<br \/>\nThe spinifex does too<br \/>\nThe tussock grass likes arid soils<br \/>\nIts tough and spikey view<\/p>\n<p>Its spines are rich in silica<br \/>\nIt prevents desertification<br \/>\nTermites rather thrive on it<br \/>\nFor them its their salvation<br \/>\nThe aboriginie use their fire sticks<br \/>\nExtracting resin which<br \/>\nMakes a strong adhesive<br \/>\nFor spears in which to pitch<\/p>\n<p>The seeds the birds and rodents eat<br \/>\nSo its useful out there where<br \/>\nanimals make their homes<br \/>\nIn The bush is theres to share<br \/>\nThe spines can break the skin<br \/>\nAnd fester so be careful when<br \/>\nYou come to pick the triodia<br \/>\nNo matter mice or men<\/p>\n<p>Out there the shooters<br \/>\nReally havent got much in the way<br \/>\nOf true respect<br \/>\nThis is the iconinc symbol<br \/>\nOf Australia, I detect<br \/>\nA shamlessness from most of them<br \/>\nOut to shoot  the Roo<br \/>\nGet it  in the headlights<br \/>\nA nice head shot will do<\/p>\n<p>Shooters use lead bullets<br \/>\nLeads is toxic,  we<br \/>\nShould never use lead anywhere<br \/>\nEnvironmentally<br \/>\nIts going to cause more problems<br \/>\nIt builds up clearly,we<br \/>\nShould use another metal<br \/>\nBut LEAD is cheap you see<\/p>\n<p>When a male is shot it leaps up<br \/>\nAnd flips over<br \/>\nThe shooter goes and drags it back<br \/>\nIts not like lambs in clover<br \/>\nThey may not actually be shot through<br \/>\nSo they are dragging a dying soul<br \/>\nAnd cutting into its body<br \/>\nTo split its heart a role<\/p>\n<p>The shooter then morphs into<br \/>\nThe butcher in control<br \/>\nThe head is first<br \/>\nTossed in the bush<br \/>\nThe tail is kept<br \/>\nFor A dollar paid<br \/>\nThe indigenous soup<br \/>\nTheir stock in trade<\/p>\n<p>Forepaws need repeated hacks<br \/>\nBlood and bone goes everywhere<br \/>\nDont be talking  lips closed tight<br \/>\nOr its in your mouth<br \/>\nWhich won&#8217;t  taste right<br \/>\nClearly the females are lighter by far<br \/>\nAnd when the arms ache<br \/>\nCan be quite the star<\/p>\n<p>Theres the uncleanness<br \/>\nThe grossness we see<br \/>\nBe- heading a joey<br \/>\nOr stomping,a key<br \/>\nIf the joey is bigger<br \/>\nGrab by the ears<br \/>\nAnd whack on a rock<br \/>\nForget about tears<\/p>\n<p>Its all about earning<br \/>\nThe money to buy<br \/>\nThe VB and getting it down yer<br \/>\nThats why<br \/>\nBlood sweat and tears<br \/>\nAnd the kangaroo bone<br \/>\nYour own filthy sweat<br \/>\nIts when you feel alone<\/p>\n<p>When the bush open up<br \/>\nIts great arms and you feel<br \/>\nCrushed by its vigour<br \/>\nFor christ it feels real<br \/>\nFrom sun down to sun up<br \/>\nIts your killing spree<br \/>\nCovered in blood<br \/>\nAnd vile butchery<\/p>\n<p>Who&#8217;d be a shooter<br \/>\nWho wants to descend<br \/>\nTo life at this level<br \/>\nYour demons to fend<br \/>\nOff feeling groggy the rigours<br \/>\nThey are there<br \/>\nAnd your driving all night<br \/>\nSo the meat all can share<\/p>\n<p>It will spoil without cold air<br \/>\nThats very clear<br \/>\nWe are sweating like pigs<br \/>\nThough pigs dont sweat I hear<br \/>\nNo sweat glands thats why<br \/>\nSo Mud baths make them feel<br \/>\nCool But you know what I  mean<br \/>\nThats the deal<\/p>\n<p>Shooters for me are the lowest of low<br \/>\nJust paid  assassins  slaughterers know<br \/>\nHow to shoot and then butcher<br \/>\nA beautiful soul<br \/>\nWith their families aware<br \/>\nOf whats now their role<br \/>\nSome of the skips in the cities<br \/>\nThey think<br \/>\nROo&#8217;s should be murdered<br \/>\nAnd that there is a link<\/p>\n<p>With disease and with farming<br \/>\nAnd the Kangaroo<br \/>\nShould now be murdered<br \/>\nSo what shooters do<br \/>\nIs supported by some<br \/>\nBut they dont have a clue<br \/>\nIts the aboriginie people<br \/>\nWho know what to do <\/p>\n<p>They will take out a young one<br \/>\nOr perhaps one  thats lame<br \/>\nBut 50 or  60 a night<br \/>\nWhat a game<br \/>\nOf murdering butchery<br \/>\nWicked and wild<br \/>\nWhat to me is the unversed immaculate child<\/p>\n<p>The iconic Kanga<br \/>\nUnblameworthy they<br \/>\nRule the dense bush<br \/>\nTheir virtues are way<br \/>\nOver the heads of the shooters around<br \/>\nWith their heads up their arses<br \/>\nWell thats What I&#8217;ve found<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Money is the
