[Intro]
You can't gauge this
Can't gauge this
You can't gauge this
[Chorus]
WA anthem's written for pages and pages
Matty B, always microphone courageous
WA anthem's written for pages and pages
Matty B, always microphone courageous
[Verse 1]
Well I'm courageous
Grab the microphone and slay this
Rhyme outrageous
Richard Court's MP's a bunch of sadists
Never hesitating to get their palms greased
And make sure any threatening element [?] increase
Argue for the common West Australian
We're tryna makе ends meet while Richard Court's out playing golf and sailing
Mum said "Get an еducation
Or your situation in the future will be clouded with financial frustration"
Maybe I shoulda listened to what she had to say
And maybe right now, we wouldn't be feelin' this way
But I don't mind because it made me grab the mic one day
And I'm a political predator, and guys who [?] are caught as my prey
I speak the truth without a moment's hesitation
Or regret the wheel's of capitalism
Oil that the common man spent, blood and tears
Your pace is redden as a [?], he gets a couple beers
Never seem to get a hit despite working his guts out for years and year
It's outrageous, yeah, it's outrageous
[Chorus]
WA anthem's written for pages and pages
Matty B, always microphone courageous
WA anthem's written for pages and pages
Matty B, always microphone courageous
[Verse 2]
I saw this girl the other day that I used to know
She looked as sick as a dog and she talked real slow
She was at the bus stop, nodding off every couple of minutes
She lost all dignity, self-esteem had diminshed
She didn't recognize me, that was sad because we were friends in school
From then, halfway through year ten, hooked up with some smackhead fool
It's happening everywhere you look, shoulda had her head in the books
Instead of hanging around with heroin crooks
Don't like how I talk, I never did my TEE
An angry young man with a bad case of A.D.D
It's still sad when you look around at WA
And all of its youth in a drug-riddled decay
We need to look to the future, forget our past
We need to elevate positively if we're gonna last
And there's no future in being a smack dealer's latest victim and I say this
Because I'm microphone courageous
[Chorus]
WA anthem's written for pages and pages
Matty B, always microphone courageous
WA anthem's written for pages and pages
Matty B, always microphone courageous
WA anthem's written for pages and pages
Matty B, always microphone courageous
WA anthem's written for pages and pages
Matty B, always microphone courageous
[Verse 3]
Well I have the noise of a percussionist, guitarist, and bassist
Never judge a book by its cover, that's right, I'm not a racist
I'm not a facist, I'm a rationalist
Got a hit out on Jack Van Tongeren and any other nationalist
So go on [?], keep on ranting and raving
I'm gonna hit on all of your boys
And your sister, Pauline Hanson
All you do is bring discrimination and aggravation
To a great ground land, with multi-cultural occupation
I articulate my rhymes clearly
MCs fear me
Young girl endear me
And my mates in the pub cheer me
Encouragement when I'm writing
You can hear my politics from your head to your stomach lining
I think it's outrageous, it's outrageous (It's outregeous, it's outrageous)
[Chorus]
WA anthem's written for pages and pages
Matty B, always microphone courageous
WA anthem's written for pages and pages
Matty B, always microphone courageous
WA anthem's written for pages and pages
Matty B, always microphone courageous
WA anthem's written for pages and pages
Matty B, always microphone courageous
[Outro]
Yes
Yeah, 'cause I'm courageous (You're courageous)
Outrageous
You can't gauge this (Can't gauge this)
You can't gauge this
Never buy it, I'm not a plagarist
You can't gauge this
Can't gauge this
Can't gauge this
