Now what are we here for?
that has set us this task?
Shall the last be the first
and the first be the last?
And why are the teddies all gone?
why Jesus was nailed to the cross
Why the Romans went free,
why the records were lost
And why are the Kellys all gone?
Sure it's too late for Ned
and it's too late for Dan
Too long with its silence
and it's too much been said
And it's too late, the Kellys are gone
Now the dingos are crying
The rest of Australia, we're still in shock
Well, where are we headed
And why are the Kellys all gone?
For the Kellys were Irish
so they'll never grow old
and the Kellys were strong
But it's too late, the Kellys are gone
Sure it's too late for Nate
and it's too late for Dan
Too long we've been silent
and there's too much being said
And it's too late, the Kellys are gone
Too late when you're sentenced
Too late when the hangman
Tell me who are the leaders
And why are the Kellys all gone?
Sure it's too late for Meg
and it's too late for Dan
Too long we've been silent
and it's too much been said
And it's too late to tell he's a goner
Sure it's too late for Meg,
and it's too late for Dan
Too long we've been silent,
and it's too much been said
And it's too late for Kelly to have a heart
Sure it's too late for Ned
and it's too late for Dan
Too long we've been silent
and there's too much being said
And it's too late for Kelly to dance
Yes, it's too late for Ned
and it's too late for Dan
Too long we've been silent
and there's too much to say
