lyrics

Got one punch
To ruin you all
Got one punch, one law
To ruin you all

What's different about that bar
after the clock strikes midnight?
Why's the city so dangerous
When we're all dancing by the moonlight?
Shift workers screwed over
Sydney is a laughing stock
We're told we're born young and free
but that's exactly what we're not

we just go home

after the clock strikes midnight
it's the witching hour
after the clock strikes midnight
you tell me we don't belong
we just go home

are you telling me we just go home?

we're all going to pay the price for every violent man?
you can't see that if we conform
and our curfew is sold
and it seems
so convenient to draw a dollar sign line in the sand
and bury our head in casinos and let
the real source go unsolved
why don't we just go

we just go home
are you telling me we just go home?
