Big Red 03:51
Top deck of the Big Red drifting west Steel gleams in the rays as The tide flows out of the day Leaving the shingle and daze In the heat haze tarmac shifts and bucks Dust floating brown like sees the mote As the water flows out of the day You turn to me and you say… And the day has warmed us And the tide has worn us smoothly Rocks crash and crack with a hiss Laughter rings from the kids As a stupor invades this land Your mind sinks into the sand Cool breezes welcome you home Hard to see in the glare And the water flows out of the day Leaving the salt as you turn to me and you say…

You've come for your pound of flesh Well I know your greed is quite a stench You've cast your beady eyes over Finery you perceive as mine Nose slashed across your face To keep you beauty down beneath our hate Revenge yourself on me Claws gleam and I am conscience free You're here to eat your fill But you'll bend the truth until it is your will A final spiteful rage Is quelled by your indifferent page

There aren't any lyrics set down for this but they follow the same story and so each take was different. But there is a video based on the lyrics used in the Hremig version which can be seen in our Videos section or at our YouTube site. People don't always seem to get the video: the song is meant to be about colonialism but a sort of abstract version of it so you shouldn't feel sorry for our 'hero' since he's really enforcing his culture on others.
