(Intro)
Beat drops — ho! Ya! Harvey Beef Boys!
Bula! From Fiji to Perth, we ride.
Pre-dawn alarm, boots hit concrete — grind.
Cold room air, forklifts hum, we don’t hide.
(Verse 1 — 16 bars)
Pre-dawn, alarm scream, eyes half closed, we move —
Coffee black, jacket zipped, badge on the groove.
Uniform stained, salt on skin from island seas,
Freight doors open — smell of beef and industry.
Forklift lights slice the dark like razor flames,
Pallets stack, we count hours not names.
Hands callused, knuckles white from the cold,
Steel cry, chains clank, another load.
We push the carts till the sun breaks the sky,
Break-room jokes, we laugh, swallow tired pride.
Letters home in the glovebox, kids’ drawings taped,
Mama’s voice on the line, her prayers not wasted.
Na tamata dau cakacaka — hardworking souls,
Kecega na siga, we rise, we reach for goals.
Fiji in our blood, Perth in our hands,
Harvey Beef Boys — we move like a band.
(Pre-Chorus — 4 bars)
Cold air, hot fire in our chest — we fight,
Kecega na siga — every day we light. (ho!)
Call the crew, call the heart — we unite,
Harvey Beef Boys — stand up, hold tight! (ya!)
(Chorus — 8 bars) [tight chant x2]
Harvey Beef Boys — we grind, we rise! (Harvey Beef Boys!)
Kecega na siga — under Perth skies! (Bula!)
Harvey Beef Boys — we grind, we rise! (Ho! Ya!)
Kecega na siga — under Perth skies! (Vinaka!)
(Verse 2 — 16 bars)
Morning shift, frost on the loading dock, breath like steam,
We tag, we scan, we stack dreams into the team.
Boots thump, PVC on the floor, beep of the crate,
Sweat in the brow, we bargain with fate.
Lunch box steam — curry and taro in a Tupperware lid,
Notes from home, prayers written, names we bid.
We carry more than weight — memory, legacy,
Stories of the reef, coconut shade, family recipe.
Clock ticks, overtime when the night goes long,
Radio hum — old Fijian songs keep us strong.
Karua ni cakacaka — two jobs, one heart,
Every pallet moved is a promise, every start.
Sere vakacegu — we sing while we lift,
Lomani vuravura — love for our gift.
Harvey Beef Boys — label on our chest,
We work, we hustle, give our very best.
(Bridge — 8 bars)
Triplet flow, staccato — push the rhythm tight,
Ad-libs cut the beat: "Harvey!" — call and sight.
This is a Fijian remix — island tongue, trap bite,
Original verse, no sample — we claim the night. (Ho!)
Cold room metal, warm hearts, pride in the grind,
From Nadi to Perth, we carry home in mind.
Vinaka vakalevu, we thank the hands that build,
Harvey Beef Boys — brothers, unbroken, willed. (Ya!)
(Final Chorus — 8 bars + ad-lib tag)
Harvey Beef Boys — we grind, we rise! (Harvey Beef Boys!)
Kecega na siga — under Perth skies! (Bula!)
Harvey Beef Boys — we grind, we rise! (Ho! Ya!)
Kecega na siga — under Perth skies! (Vinaka!)
Tag: Harvey Beef Boys! — Ho! — Harvey Beef Boys! — Ya!
Call-response: "Harvey!" — "Beef!" — "Boys!" — "Family!"
Outro chant: Kecega na siga, we rise again — we stand,
Harvey Beef Boys — Fiji in our blood, Austra
