Out where the river broke
The bloodwood and the desert oak
Holden wrecks and boiling diesels
Steam at forty-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 it back
How can we dance when our earth is turning?
How do we sleep while our beds are burning?
How can we dance when our earth is turning?
How do we sleep while our beds are burning?
The time has come to say "Fair's fair"
To pay the rent now, to pay our share
Four wheels scare the cockatoos
From Kintore, east to Yuendemu
The Western Desert lives and breathes
In forty-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 it back
How can we dance when our earth is turning?
How do we sleep while our beds are burning?
How can we dance when our earth is turning?
How do we sleep while our beds are burning?
The time has come to say "Fair's fair"
To pay the rent now, to pay our share
The time has come, a fact's a fact
It belongs to them, we're gonna give it back
How can we dance when our earth is turning?
How do we sleep while our beds are burning?
The bloodwood and the desert oak
Holden wrecks and boiling diesels
Steam at forty-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 it back

Yes 90% of crimes are comitted by Aborigines, now shall i get the fire lighted up to burn the books or will you do it mop_32 and Adster81. Hope you've been working your right arms out as well, we have alot of goosestepping across Australia with our right arms firmly in the air to do. Oh wait sorry that was a bit extreme what i meant to say was you guys are racist wankers, thats it knew i'd get to it eventually.
