Reference is to an event in Australia's (white) history.

William Bligh (1754-1817), governor of New South Wales, Australia, prohibited offering spirits in payment for commodities. Though many colonists supported his attempts to normalize trade, others resented his interference. A series of charges and countercharges culminated in a military rebellion in January 1808. A group of New South Wales Corps officers, led by Major George Johnston, a regular, arrested Bligh as unfit for office and held him prisoner pending the arrival of a new governor. For over a year Bligh remained confined. Finally he agreed to set sail for England, but once aboard he turned back and attempted to resume control of Sydney. In 1809, the British government, recognizing the impasse between governor and military, recalled Bligh (to become a rear admiral). Colonel Lachlin Macquarie, an able administrator, arrived (1809). The commandant was later found guilty of mutiny and the New South Wales Corps was broken up.

I think I found you a theme song. It is from Soldat Louis, a group from Québec adn it is sort of a sailor's song.

Du rhum, des femmes et d’la bière, nom de Dieu!
Un accordéon pour valser tant qu’on veut.
Du rhum, des femmes, c’est ça qui rend heureux.
Que l’diable nous emporte, on a rien trouvé d’mieux.

Hello cap’tain! Fait briller tes galons.
Et reste bien au chaud, quand on gèle sur le pont.
Nous c’est not’peine qui nous coule sur le front.
Alors, tiens bien les rênes, tu connais la chanson.

Du rhum, des femmes et d’la bière, nom de Dieu!
Un accordéon pour valser tant qu’on veut.
Du rhum, des femmes, c’est ça qui rend heureux.
Que l’diable nous emporte, on a rien trouvé d’mieux.

Ça fait une paye qu’on a pas touché terre.
Et même une paye qu’on s’fait des gonzesses en poster.
Tant pis pour celle qui s’pointera la première.
J’lui démonte la pass’relle, la cale, la dunette arrière.

Du rhum, des femmes et d’la bière, nom de Dieu!
Un accordéon pour valser tant qu’on veut.
Du rhum, des femmes, c’est ça qui rend heureux.
Que l’diable nous emporte, on a rien trouvé d’mieux.

Tout est grave quelque part sur ma peau
Tell’ment qu’j’en ai les bras, comme des romans-photos.
Blessures de guerre, culs d’bouteilles, coups d’couteaux.
Tant qu’y aura des comptoirs, on aura des héros.

Du rhum, des femmes et d’la bière, nom de Dieu!
Un accordéon pour valser tant qu’on veut.
Du rhum, des femmes, c’est ça qui rend heureux.
Que l’diable nous emporte, on a rien trouvé d’mieux.

Trois milles du cap, c’est les foies, c’est les glandes.
Quand t’as l’coeur qui dérape et les tripes qui fermentent.
J’essaie d’penser au claque, aux filles qui s’impatientent.
Pas au bateau qui craque, entre deux déferlantes.

Du rhum, des femmes et d’la bière, nom de Dieu!
Un accordéon pour valser tant qu’on veut.
Du rhum, des femmes, c’est ça qui rend heureux.
Que l’diable nous emporte, on a rien trouvé d’mieux.

Basically it says:
"Some rum, some women and some booze, (insert favourite religious swearing)!
Some music to dance all we want.
Some rum, some women, that's what makes us happy.
May the Devil take us, we have found nothing better."

Enjoy! :)

I have to make a correction, the group is not from Québec, but rather from Bretagne, in the NW of France. I could have sworn they were from Québec, the way they use the french language! Anyway, being from Bretagne, that makes them Celtic.

oooooooooooeeeeeeeeeeeoooooooo......rebel rangers iz jammin' a radio station near you....

I'm the dandy highwayman who you're too scared to mention
I spend my cash on looking flash and grabbing your attention
the devil take your Arcaean and your Yor Collection!
the way you play you'll not rate in this year's game extension!

Stand and deliver your money or your life!
try and use an uzi it's better than a knife!

I'm the dandy highwayman so sick of easy fashion
the clumsy boots, peek-a-boo roots that people think so dashing
so what's the point of robbery when nothing is worth taking?
it's kind of tough to tell a scruff the big mistake he's making

Stand and deliver your money or your life!
try and use an uzi it's better than a knife!

and even though you fool your souls
your conscience will be mine
all mine

We're the dandy highwaymen so tired of excuses
of deep meaning philosophies where only GalCiv loses
we're the dandy highwaymen and here's our invitation
"throw your safety overboard and join our Ranger Nation"

Stand and deliver your money or your life!
try and use an uzi it's better than a knife!

and even though you fool your souls
your conscience will be mine, all mine

da diddley qa qa da diddley qa qa
da diddley qa qa da diddley qa qa

Stand and deliver your money or your life!
Stand and deliver your money or your life!...
