Slightly crazy writer and passionate educator for those who struggle
We have a history in Australia
Of our fighting men,
Stories are told, again and again
Of these soldiers and their woes
Of Simpson and his donkey
Every Aussie kid knows
And at a push we can tell you
That Kiwis, from across the ditch
Are also included in ANZACs
But there is something that we miss
Our indigenious Australians
Also did us proud
They fought for our flegdling country
And that’s something that we forgot
It’s our history
It’s not a mystery
They battled at Gallipoli
And battled at the Somme
One young man awarded medals
Signed by George the V
Yet when he returned home
He was unsung.
This is our shame
We should remember
We are a nation
All together
ANZACs
Mateship
Lest we forget
Do not forget about the others
The ones we never hear of
Our Aboriginal Australians also fought for our lifestyle
Lest we forget.
