A running commentary on school life at a school in the Blue Mountains, west of Sydney.

| Battle of the Sexes, | |||
| Battle against whites, | |||
| Battle of religions, | |||
| Bombings over night. | |||
| Battle of the Races, | |||
| Battle against you, | |||
| Battling your dominance, | |||
| Battling your view. | |||
| Living with unwanted waste, | |||
| Taking all your crap, | |||
| Putting up with ten times more, | |||
| and trying not to crack. | |||
| We never asked for new TVs, | |||
| or western social views, | |||
| the violence and the fighting, | |||
| or propaganda news. | |||
| We simply want the freedom | |||
| and peace of times gone by, | |||
| the lives of those around us, | |||
| we do not want to die. | |||
| Our lives will never be the same, | |||
| our cheeks are scarred with tears, | |||
| from living scared and worried, | |||
| no sleep for twenty years. |
