Becoming famous and well-known. "When your walk on role becomes a major part". Changing into a celebrity and forgetting who you really are, and becoming what society wants you to be. "Pride comes before a fall". |

"He" is John Howard and the song is about Aborigines and reconciliation. Howard pretends to care, but he never actually does anything to reconcile with the Aboriginal people (we're trying hard to reconcile a history of shame). The "dogs" are the Aborigines, refering to the way Aborigines are treated like dogs and thrown in cages (jail) while the whites have more opportunities (fine time for the people in the lucky land). |

This song is about being stuck in this corporate world of 9-5, where everyone has a mortgage and responsibilities. We choose to be chained like this instead of living a more free life. If you want to go explore the world, jump aboard an come with me! |

It's neither. The first two verses talk about working hard all throughout life and not being able to relax instead. Life has its own pace but you can't relate to that because you're always on a schedule. |
