lyrics

HAVE YOU EVER BEEN HOMESICK, BEEN REALLY ALONE
AWAY FROM YOUR FAMILY, AWAY FROM YOUR HOME
HAVE YOU EVER BEEN SHOT AT, HAVE YOU EVER BEEN SCARED
HAVE YOU EVER WATCHED SOMEONE, BEING BLOWN AWAY
HAVE YOU READ IN A PAPER, WHEN YOU’RE FIGHTING A WAR
THOUGH WE’RE OUT THERE DYING, PEOPLE ARGUE WHAT FOR
HAVE YOU EVER SMELLED NAPALM, HAVE YOU SEEN WHAT IT DOES?
HAVE YOU EVER WATCHED CHILDREN, LAYING DEAD IN THE MUD
HAVE YOU EVER COME HOMe, SURVIVING THE WAR
TO NO HEROES WELCOME, TO NO ONE’S APPLAUSE
HAVE YOU EVER HAD NIGHTMARES, SCREAMING OUT IN THE NIGHT
HAVE YOU EVER TRIED DYING, JUST TO LIVE IS TO FIGHT
THEY SPRAYED IT ALL OVER, AND THERE WAS NOWHERE TO HIDE
AFTER MANY YEARS TORTURE, STILL AGENT ORANGE SURVIVES
AFTER SO MANY BREAKDOWNS, AND PSYCHOLOGICAL SORES
WHAT OF OUR CRIPPLED CHILDREN, YEARS AFTER THE WAR
SO I’M ASKING YOU BROTHER, DO YOU THINK THAT IT’S FAIR POLITICIANS DONT WANT US, AFTER SENDING US THERE
WHEN YOU WAKE IN THE MORNING, SPARE A THOUGHT FOR THE GUY
WHO IS LIVING A NIGHTMARE, WITH AGENT ORANGE INSIDE

about

Louey Hesterman Apollo Bay, Australia

Louey Hesterman’s Whimsy is an autobiographical tale beginning in Echuca by the Murray River and travelling via
Melbourne, Mildura and Vietnam to come to rest comfortably in Apollo Bay.
The scene for Whimsy has been set, and the flights of fancy that include a voyage to the South Seas and a seemingly impossible mash-up of Celtic reels and surf rock suddenly make sense.
Sort of!
