Black fella, white fella
It doesn't matter, what your colour
As long as you, a true fella
As long as you, a real fella
All the people, of different races
With different lives, in different places
It doesn't matter, what your name is
We got to have, lots of changes
We need more brothers, if we're to make it
We need more sisters, if we're to save it
Are you the one that's gonna stand up and be counted?
Are you the one who's gonna be there when we shout it?
Are you the one that's always ready with a helping hand?
Are you the one who understands these family plans?
Black fella, white fella
Yellow fella, any fella
It doesn't matter, what your colour
As long as you, a true fella
All the people, of different races
With different lives, in different places
It doesn't matter, which religions
It's all the same when the, ship is sinking
We need more brothers, if we're to make it
We need more sisters, if we're to save it
Are you the one that's gonna stand up and be counted?
Are you the one who's gonna be there when we shout it?
Are you the one that's always ready with a helping hand?
Are you the one who understands these family plans?
Oh stand up, stand up and be counted
Oh stand up, stand up and be counted
Are you the one that's gonna stand up and be counted?
Are you the one who's gonna be there when we shout it?
Are you the one that's always ready with a helping hand?
Are you the one who understands these family plans?
Oh stand up, stand up and be counted
Oh stand up, stand up and be counted
It doesn't matter, what your colour
As long as you, a true fella
As long as you, a real fella
All the people, of different races
With different lives, in different places
It doesn't matter, what your name is
We got to have, lots of changes
We need more brothers, if we're to make it
We need more sisters, if we're to save it
Are you the one that's gonna stand up and be counted?
Are you the one who's gonna be there when we shout it?
Are you the one that's always ready with a helping hand?
Are you the one who understands these family plans?

1986
Big Name, No Blankets
In Australia la segregazione razziale è stata, ed è, paragonabile a quella vigente negli Stati Uniti o all'Apartheid Sudafricana. Ancora nel 2012 sono state promulgate leggi che creavano leggi ad hoc solo per gli aborigeni.
Questa canzone della band country Australiana Warumpi composta da musicisti sia bianchi che aborigeni auspica un futuro in cui non conti il colore della pelle
