Split Lip - Beds Are Burning lyrics
rate meOut where the river broke<br />
The bloodwood and the desert oak<br />
Holden wrecks and boiling diesels<br />
Steam at forty five degrees<br />
<br />
The time has come<br />
To say fair’s fair<br />
To pay the rent<br />
To pay our share<br />
<br />
The time has come<br />
A fact’s a fact<br />
It belongs to them<br />
Let’s give it back<br />
<br />
How can we dance<br />
When our earth is turning?<br />
How do we sleep<br />
When our beds are burning?<br />
<br />
How can we dance<br />
When our earth is turning?<br />
How do we sleep<br />
When our beds are burning?<br />
<br />
Now the time has come<br />
To say fair’s fair<br />
To pay the rent<br />
To pay our share<br />
<br />
The four wheels scare the cockatoos<br />
From Kintore East to Yuendemu<br />
The wretched desert lives and breathes<br />
In forty five degrees<br />
<br />
The time has come<br />
To say fair’s fair<br />
To pay the rent<br />
To pay our share<br />
<br />
The time has come<br />
A fact’s a fact<br />
It belongs to them<br />
Let’s give it back<br />
<br />
How can we dance<br />
When our earth is turning?<br />
How do we sleep<br />
When our beds are burning?<br />
<br />
How can we dance<br />
When our earth is turning?<br />
How do we sleep<br />
When our beds are burning?<br />
<br />
The time has come<br />
To say fair’s fair<br />
To pay the rent<br />
To pay our share<br />
<br />
The time has come<br />
A fact’s a fact<br />
It belongs to them<br />
Let’s give it back<br />
<br />
How can we dance<br />
When our earth is turning?<br />
How do we sleep<br />
When our beds are burning?
