Midnight Oil piosenki

It's a lonesome away from your kindred and all By the campfire at night where the wild dingoes call But there's nothing so lonesome, morbid or drear Than to stand in the bar of a pub with no beer Now the publican's anxious for the quota to come And there's a...

I'm a snow plough I must now plough on I'm a snow plough I'm a settler's son I'm a storm cloud Rain myself all over the place I'm a storm cloud Wipe that smile right off your face There must be one place left in the world Where the mountains meet the...

You're watching people fighting you're watching People losing on Armistice Day You're watching people fighting You're watching people losing on Armistice Day The watchers do the wincing reporters so convincing But the two never lies I went looking for a...

I don't want to grow anything in my heart I don't want to write all these things int he sand I don't wish to listen and not understand I don't want to tramp up the footpath of stares Don't want to be an advocate Don't want to be a momument There is noth...

From the bar to the bedroom I'm swimming in the neon Lighted pictures of a redhead, plasticoated hot on And sometimes when that mirror shows The smile of disbelief Stained signature of nightmares They're stolen by the thief I'm back on the borderline Y...

I am gone, can't waste more time I said, not quite joking The fire has gone the big trees stand The underground is smoking Remember nothing you've been told Means anything to me And everything you hold is mine In the barest degree I walked up to the...

Must be time for a second chance I can't escape this basement flat Writers cramp and claustrophobia Must be time for a better place My sink leaks and the rats have won the race Over and over What can I do There must be some solution Must be time for...

In this city with no footpath There's a building with no people There is crime and gun decisions There's a street of heat and hawkers There's a house of hope and drifters There's a gang that shoots then listens There's a place that knows no poverty A t...

Out where the river broke The blood wood and the desert oak Holden wrecks and boiling diesels Steam in fourty-five degrees The time has come to say fair's fair To pay the rent, to pay our share The time has come a fact's a fact It belongs to them let's give i...

Fresh air soft landing So good to be home This bruised world's got it's beauty It's where I belong. The sight of those green curves Quickens my heart Break the grip of Leviathan Now I'm ready to start. Have I been away too long Have I been away too...

The Southern Aurora was late again As I waited at central to take you home Winking spinning sparkling lights on our flat earth You talk about the old groundling ways Where the suburbs summer pulse and play in wrinkled sand and never never never neverland...

You say times are tough We've got the best of both worlds here Things are rough We've got the best of both worlds here Times are tough We've got the best of both worlds here The real world is not as calm as it appears to be from here The real world is...

You the mothers who sent your sons Wipe away your tears For those who fought and those who fell Become our sons as well. You the warriors with your words Throw away your spears You talk of times of peace for all And then prepare for war. All the peopl...

Welcome stranger listen in The presumption of innocence was buried again Carve up-selloff Triumphalism gotta be a curse or even worse It's inherited it's recurring, oh God I have walked I have swum I've hitchhiked and I've run do you know what I mean I...

There'll be food on the table tonight There'll be pay in your pocket tonight My gut is wrenched out it is crunched up and broken My life that is lived is no more than a token Who'll strike the flint upon the stone and tell me why? If I yell at night there's...

I've seen faces in the window, I've seen faces in the street They talk and walk of nothing I've known many restless summons the sand dunes I imagine A place without a postcard Flower people were so beautiful but straight and louds the way Good luck the be...

Here comes the angel of death You may not remember her yet Concrete all over her face Child bride of the human race Until you see life in the forest Until you hear you’ve been abolished Forget everything that you think you’ve been promised Bring...

In the desert in the dry before the breaking of the rain the temperature in the shade had reached a hundred and ten again In the desert in the dry on the overland telegraph line don't take the law into your own hands don't go looking for a fight I've heard t...

Brought up in the world of changes, part time cleaner in a holiday feat I stare out to sea at the ships at night No anaesthesia, I'm going to work on it day to day No zephyr, no light relief it seems But maybe it's a dream I'm lying back in a row of tim...

In my shoes, in my shoes There is so much to remind me As the stars come out above me, home Cool wind, clear my head Bright sun grow my food Strong rain clear my heart Fill my land It's a new day I don't know why it is sold Don't know why it's so co...
