THIS IS FOR MATILDA - Copyright  - by Brian Kable

The rainbow serpent
raises its head
40,000 years
of tradition

We share one dream
and it has lead
us to this final conclusion

Together we march
to the beat of a drum
the beat of our heart’s
all Aussies as one

So here we come one and all
watch out here come the Aussie girls

This is for Matilda
This is for Matilda
This is for Matilda

From the land down under

+++++++++++++

You lace up your boots you pull on your shirt
It’s gold and green
you wear your heart on your sleeve
it’s all you believe
we share your dream

Be as bold as the sun 
in an outback sky
that turns our night into day

and tell all the world 
they’d better begin
to hope and prey

++++++++++++++

This is for Matilda
This is for Matilda
This is for Matilda

From the land down under
+++++++++++++

So if you pass by the stadium
a ghostly voice will be heard
whispering down from the heavens
I told you so, I told you so, I told you so, I told you so

++++++++++++

This is for Matilda
This is for Matilda

++++++++++++++

We believe…(Guitar instrumental)

++++++++++++++

Knocked to the ground
your opponent looks pleased 
it’s in you we trust

you get back up again
fight ‘til the end
let them eat your dust

you fly down the wing
you cross the ball
your head rises above the crowd

and the net explodes
their goalie's in tears
20 million hearts beat loud

This is for Matilda
from the land down under
