Music and lyrics by Andrew Winton
lyrics
Me No Complain
Well everyone’s got, an axe to grind
If you don’t, then one I will find
Cos’ I got plenty, to share with you
Seeing as you’re stuck with me, don’t mind if I do
Over diagnosed kids and traffic jams
Bearded hipsters pushing 4 - wheel drive prams
I think out loud, what a crying shame
But you know…me no complain
Political, correctness gone mad
Coffee prices, worst we’ve ever had
Floods of boat people, the cultural elite
Steal it away from man on the street
But I’ve already, made you miss your train
And besides…me no complain
Everything you need to know is on a blog somewhere
Like talkback radio, transparent and fair
But don’t put all the facts in the story for me
The truth will make you miserable, before it sets you free.
Well apologies, for taking up your time
Truth be told, I guess we’re doing fine
It’s just some people, don’t wanna take the blame
And I’m not, racist, sexist, Baptist or leftist
So…me no complain.
