Sajak / Lirik lagu : A Hundred Challenging Things A Boy Can Do
Penyanyi / Artist / Band : Darren Hayes
It was a coal town
He spent his whole life in a hole in
the ground smashing pieces of earth
He never really saw the sky
It was a hard life
But little black rocks make the televisions
work and put food on the table
Until the unions cast him aside
Now there's a hundred challenging things a boy can do
And you've waved goodbye and held more tears in
than anyone ever should
And all my sorrows pale to insignificance
That's why I love you
She was in a strange land
She taught herself to read
from doing crosswords and hiding her accent
She cast her dreams aside
She had a spark in her eye
She never saw her son on his wedding day
Or our cherry blossoms falling down from the sky
Now there's a hundred challening things a boy can do
And you've waved goodbye and held more tears in
than anyone ever should
And all my sorrows pale to insignificance
That's why I love you
No coal mines
No not a trace
Now shopping malls take their place
No picket lines
The sacrifice
Dreams overrun
Hopes for a future for her son in Ollerton
Now there's a hundred challenging things a boy can do
And you've waved goodbye and held more tears in
than anyone ever should
And all my sorrows pale to insignificance
That's why she loves you
A hundred challenging things a boy can do
Wave goodbye
Wave goodbye
A hundred challenging
Say goodbye to you.
