well in reference to the play on words, it could possibly be an adaption of australian rhyming slang, where some who is said to be on their "pat malone" is someone who is alone just another possibility? |

i think this song might be about someone who went to the cronulla riots, but werent really affiliated with either side of the fight "he could have a knife stabe me in the gut bleeding on the floor should have kept my mouth shout" and then also "i just wanna dance with my shirt off" - because lots of the "aussies" or anglo australians were depicted without shirts "there are people who are pushing me on the train" - many people used trains from the western suburbs to get to cronulla, it is on these trains as well, where a lot of the violence took place "screaming from the top of buildings "youre gonna get whats coming" " several people were reported to have climbed to the roof of the rsl and were shouting racial taunts and abuse this could be far fetched but it seems that there is a lot of evidence to back it up |
