Standing in the house of the founding fathers It's a house that's not been well looked after There's a fatal flaw in the mighty rafters There's a rule of law, written by the cotton masters I took my place at the murray darling chamber I saw no friendly face, I was a stranger There was a secret plan, a plan to hasten slowly There was a show of...Learn More

Drive the Bowral road in autumn The gibs on fire like a red plum The burning colours beat the humdrum As time goes by I try to hold the vision slippery The air is thickening in front of me The scented gum it's a sweet sanctuary As time goes by I've still got a clear eye Bathed in soft sunlight I'm feeling the magic of the day The Chinese...Learn More

There's a dark cloud on the horizon And it's coming closer every day No one, no one understands why its happening We are not afraid Sometimes, huh, nightmares get inside our heads Too much grasping madness reaching everywhere Waking up a world of fear Yet darkness lifts The way ahead is clear We are not afraid The rights of those that follow...Learn More

[Verse 1] There's a red bridge in the mountains Where the Tarkine trees touch multi-coloured skies They cast shadows on the painted ground And to get there, well, I just close my eyes [Chorus] Well, I lost myself when I walked through you All that I have now is a souvenir of you [Verse 2] There's a lexicon of forest giants Coachwood, Myrtle,...Learn More

Barry said his last goodbye To all the doomsday warriors And set off for the bay He could sniff the salt and scented sea He kicked the backside of the teeve The sky was in a darkening frame Crowds trampling on the midden shells Buried underneath the carpark Where people danced and sang He'd been pedalling hard for most his life Now he could hardly...Learn More

We've got the green light We're gonna dynamite A world heritage site Scientific recourse Try to keep them so short Hey, never read the details Says it needs protection But we've got elections Coal-fired erections We're gonna make it pay We'll do it our way So how about a railway?
