MIDNIGHT OIL - Hercules lyrics

rate me

My life is a valuable thing

I wan't to keep it that way, I won't cry

My life's such a valuable thing

Some things don't fade away, I don't mind

We give the best we can give

We won't forget, we can't forgive

Keep us radioactive free

Strike a bell in Hiroshima park

You know that we can't see in the dark

We try and we try and we try...

Who waits for the planes to come

When everybody's got you on the run

South Pacific carry on

It seems to me that what we're saying

Nobody really wants to talk about it

This is no time to be wondering why

I do the best I can do

The human jungle and the global zoo

I'll find my way it's a very special way

Why wait for the planes to come

When everybody's got us on the run

South Pacific carry on

Here come the hercules

Here come the submarines

Sinking south pacific dreams
