Xavier Rudd - THE NATIVE EYE lyrics

If there's some bustle and its in you head

And its all about that man over there

Well he's a person from your western world

And he's fat and he's white

And he's got it all

Hey man nice Sulu yeah you look the part

With your shells hanging down

On your fat gut

Give the man a Cocktail

Yeah give him some lunch

And a banana lounge to plant his arse

We're all so different

Though we seem the same

Through the native eye we look so vein

Well he knows Fiji yeah he knows it well

He's spent two long weeks in this hotel

Give him some Kava watch him drink it down

And if it tastes like shit he'll tell you aloud

Bula Vinaka is his Native tongue

Through a narrow mind his travelling's done

Good luck my fat friend

Yeah but watch your mouth

You may offend someone somewhere

Its not allowed

On my adventures I will open my eyes

And I'll open my mind to suck inside

Any foreign culture I can possibly cram

I'll give respect to the people

And respect what they have
