Blow Up the Pokies Lyrics

Blow Up The Pokies (1999) - The Whitlams

There was the stage, two red lights and a dodgy P.A.
You trod the planks way back then
And its strange that youre here again, here again

And I wish I, wish I knew the right words
To make you feel better, walk out of this place
And defeat them in your secret battle
Show them you can be your own man again

Dont, dont explain
Lots of little victories take on the pain
It takes so long to earn
You can double up or you can burn, you can burn

And I wish I, wish I knew the right words
To make you feel better, walk out of this place
And defeat them in your secret battle
Show them you can be your own man again

And I wish I, wish I knew the right words
To blow up the pokies and drag them away
Cause theyre taking the food off your table
So they can say that the trains run on time

Flashing lights, its a real show
And your wife? I wouldnt go home
The little bundles need care
And you cant be a father there, father there

And I wish I, wish I knew the right words
To make you feel better, walk out of this place
And defeat them in your secret battle
Show them you can be your own man again
Show them you can be your own man again

And I wish I, wish I knew the right words
To blow up the pokies and drag them away
Cause theyre taking the food off your table
So they can say that the trains run on time
Another man there was made the trains run on time
