Who Really Wants To Be A Star?
Knowing the fame game
Wouldn’t be much fun
Our drummer killed off his former self
And summoned up a new one
They say, ‘what’s in a name?’
But he had a vision
When he adopted a pseudonym
When he became Les Mun
Chorus:
There were those who thought he had gone too far
But who really wants to be a star?
So the years went by
The money rolled in
We were rolling in clover
We were swimming in gin
Our faces on the cover
Of Rolling Stone magazine
With the exception of one of us
He was nowhere to be seen
Chorus:
See the Rockstar in the Jaguar? That’s a proxy
Driving the posh car, who really wants to be a star?
When playing the fame game
Choose an avatar
At least that way you’ll remember
Who you really are

The Ship That Didn’t Sail
You stood with Mao Zedong in China
Against Franco with Hemingway in Spain
You recorded the plight of the Belgian miners
And in Amsterdam, you filmed the rain
Sailing out of Sydney Harbour
Manned by an all-Indian crew
A supply ship headed for Jakarta
Imperial business there to do
Chorus:
The ship that didn’t sail
The ship that didn’t sail
You were on hand to film the Black Armada
With ‘Big Jim’ Healy and the unions, allied
You and the wharfies boarded a tugboat
And that ship, Jakarta bound, pulled alongside
Calling to your Indian brothers through a bullhorn
You made sure the cause of justice would prevail
The ship bound for Jakarta never left Sydney Harbour
The ship that didn’t sail
(Chorus)
You stood with Mao Zedong in China
Against Franco with Hemingway in Spain
You recorded the plight of the Belgian miners
And in Amsterdam, you filmed the rain
