Gang Gajang - Sounds of Then

[Verse 1]
I think I hear the sounds of then and people talking
The scenes recalled by minute movement
And songs they fall from the backing tape
That certain texture, that certain smell

[Verse 2]
To lie in sweat on familiar sheets
In brick veneer on financed beds
In a room of silent HardieFlex
That certain texture, that certain smell

[Pre-Chorus]
Brings home the heavy days
Brings home the the nighttime swell

[Chorus]
Out on the patio we'd sit
And the humidity we'd breathe
We'd watch the lightning crack over cane-fields
And laugh and think, "This is Australia"

[Verse 3]
The block is awkward, it faces west
Long diagonals and sloping, too
And in the distance, through the heat haze
In convoys of silence the cattle graze

[Pre-Chorus]
That certain texture, that certain beat
Brings forth the nighttime heat
Cha-kow

[Chorus]
Out on the patio we'd sit
And the humidity we'd breathe
We'd watch the lightning crack over cane-fields
Laugh and think that this is Australia

[Verse 2, repeated]
To lie in sweat, on familiar sheets
In brick veneer on financed beds
In a room of silent HardieFlex
That certain texture, that certain smell

[Pre-Chorus]
Brings forth the heavy days
Brings forth the night time swell
Cha-kow

[Chorus]
Out on the patio we'd sit
And the humidity we'd breathe
We'd watch the lightning crack over cane-fields
And laugh and think, "This is Australia"

[Chorus]
Out on the patio we'd sit
And the humidity we'd breathe
We'd watch the lightning crack over cane-fields
And laugh and think, "This is Australia"
This is Australia
This is Australia
This is Australia
