Out here nothin changes
Not in a hurry anyway
You can feel the endlessness
With the comin of the light o day
Youre talkin bout a chosen place
You wanna sell it in a marketplace
Well
Well just a minute now
Youre standin on
Solid rock
Standin on sacred ground
Livin on borrowed time
And the winds of change
Are blowin down the line
Right down the line
Well round about the dawn of time
The Dreaming all began
A crowd of people came
Well they were lookin for their promised land
Were runnin from the heart of darkness
Searchin for the heart of light
It was their paradise [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/g/goanna/solid_rock.html ]
Well they were standin on
Solid rock
Standin on sacred ground
Livin on borrowed time
And the winds of change
Were blowin cold that night
Well they were standin on the shore one day
Saw the white sails in the sun
Wasnt long before they felt the sting
White man, white law, white gun
Dont tell me that its justified
Cause somewhere
Someone lied
Yeah, well someone lied
Someone lied
Genocide
Well someone lied
And now youre standin on
Solid rock
Standin on sacred ground
Livin on borrowed time
And the winds of change
Are blowin down the line
Solid rock
Standin on sacred ground
Livin on borrowed time
And the winds of change
Are blowin down the line
Solid rock
Standin on sacred ground
Livin on borrowed time
And the winds of change
Are blowin down the line
No!
Solid rock!? No wonder their called rolling stones lol:)

The meaning of the song? It's typical anti-white guilt.

I think solid rock is a fantastic tribute to the original owners of this land... A land that was not "terra nullis" at all, but a land that was occupied and cared for by it's original inhabitants.

Why didn't the capital letters come up as capital letters i wrote aboriginal in capitals as well as anangu

This song in simplicity tells the story of the rape and pillage of the lands of the anangu people.. But then goes into the details and tells a complex story of pre- invasion and the peaceful lives of the aboriginal people, the invasion itself how the english were leaving a place that was 'heart of darkness' for a promised land australia what they did when they got here.. (someone lied i think refers to terra nullius) this was used to justify the genocide of aboriginal peoples. And fundamentally reminds me that every grain of sand on this huge island is sacred ground. I have loved this song since it first came out, and i knew what it meant back then. Of course it means much more to me now.
