Description
[Intro]
Pulse like rivets, mirrorball glow
Handclaps snap — feel the riverflow
Strobe of stars on a mud-slick road
Sappers step in, light the load
[Verse 1]
Born 1st of September, ’76 — a dawn in the mist
Where swamplands sighed, steel rhythms rose and kissed
Green River to Amanab, boots cut a bright line
Soldered by rain, by tide, by time
We laid the tracks so voices could be heard
Bridges like poems, every bolt a word
Papua New Guinea’s heartbeat, steady and clear
Sappers’ breath on futures we build year by year
[Pre-Chorus]
Glint of helmets, heartbeat syncopates
Dust and disco, duty celebrates
From swamp to summit the groove ascends
Call the chorus, let the night begin
[Chorus]
A step ahead — we light the night
A step ahead — we light the night
(Hands up — echo back, we hold the light)
A step ahead — we light the night
A step ahead — we light the night
(One beat, one line: we stand, we build, we fight)
[Verse 2 — Rescue Scene]
Night on Porgera’s slopes — orange glows and trembling earth
A river of stone, a town that mourned its hearth
We dug with song in rain, mud on our hands like tar
Pulled out hope from rubble beneath a lone star
Victorian bushfires — ash like slow snow
We moved like water, carried people, carried home
When the uni bridge fell, when volcanoes roared twice
Sappers braided ladders out of will and sacrifice
[Pre-Chorus — Call & Response]
Leader: “Can you feel the beat?”
Crowd: “We feel it in our veins!”
Leader: “Can you see the light?”
Crowd: “We carry it again!”
[Chorus]
A step ahead — we light the night
A step ahead — we light the night
(Clap-clap — every hand, every heart in flight)
A step ahead — we light the night
A step ahead — we light the night
(Shout: PukPuk pride — sparkling under neon lights)
[Breakdown — Production Cues]
[Four-bar bassline solo — slap bass + disco wah]
[Handclap layers build, strings swell, hi-hat rolls]
Call & Response vocal chops: “Step — ahead!” “Step — ahead!”
[Verse 3 — Alliances & Exercises]
Queen's Gurkha Engineer Regiment shoulder to shoulder, kin
Hong Kong skyline to Katipo winds, we’ve learned to dance within
ACAAP shores, New Caledonia’s tide, Japan’s precise sunrise
Exercise PukPuk stamped in memory, training with fire in our eyes
Each exchange a mirror — we sharpen, we trade the light
A workshop of courage, a choreography of might
[Bridge — Rising Build]
Fifty years and the mirrorball still turns
Every scar a constellation, every lesson burns
From dusk into dawn we step, we thread
One drum, one line — the future’s led
(Instrumental rise: synth swell, brass stab, claps accelerate)
[Final Chorus — Anthemic]
A step ahead — we light the night
A step ahead — we light the night
(Every voice: A step ahead — we light the night)
A step ahead — we light the night
A step ahead — we light the night
(Last call: Sappers stand — forever bright)
[Outro]
Spin it loud — the march becomes a dance
Raise your hands — give history a chance
Four-bar fade: bass a
