John Farnham, David Hirschfelder, and Ross Fraser

|
All the world's a stage they say
|
But who decides the parts we play
|
A mourner in the Lebanon
|
A logger in the Amazon
|
|
Soldiers in the square of shame
|
Our children play in acid rain
|
They won't pay a martyr's bail
|
Black fella in a white man's jail
|
|
See the Banners fall
|
Hear the future call
|
Time to start again
|
They're dancing on the wall
|
Can you hear them call
|
See the Banners fall
|
|
The Colonel wears Pierre Cardin
|
But clothes don't always make the man
|
The teacher preaches what he's told
|
But can the preacher save your soul
|
|
See the Banners fall
|
Hear the future call
|
Time to start again
|
They're dancing on the wall
|
Can you hear them call
|
See the Banners fall
|
|
Eagles in a sea of oil
|
Noble men on barren soil
|
Children waiting in the wings
|
Wonder what the future brings
|
|
See the Banners fall
|
Hear the future call
|
Time to start again
|
They're dancing on the wall
|
Can you hear them call
|
See the Banners fall
|
