Who Can Stand In The Way - Midnight Oil[00:00:00]
Written by:Moginie/Garrett[00:00:01]
Well oh well I feel I'm in decay[00:00:26]
John laws is on the air again[00:00:34]
It's heavy traffic jacarandas[00:00:42]
Eye in the sky and foot on ground[00:00:46]
I see a million sand specked ants[00:00:51]
In mortal combat hand to hand[00:00:54]
And I feel that I[00:00:59]
Yes I feel that I[00:01:02]
Seem to live this life long distance[00:01:06]
Gaze at the things surround me[00:01:09]
People rolling in and out[00:01:14]
Those circles and tides confound me[00:01:17]
And there's just one thing[00:01:22]
Yes there's just one thing[00:01:25]
Who can stand in the way[00:01:33]
When there's a dollar to be made[00:01:36]
I was hanging round off dobroyd point[00:01:48]
When the first fleet chain sailed in[00:01:52]
Looked into the clearest blue[00:01:56]
The scurvy smell the convicts cry[00:01:59]
And we just carried on[00:02:04]
Yes we just carried on[00:02:07]
Now choppers strafe the supermarket sky[00:02:11]
And people wonder why[00:02:15]
Chopping down tons of trees[00:02:19]
Got seas of print not a soul can read say[00:02:21]
Why do I drown you build brick boxes[00:02:23]
One by one now they block my sun[00:02:25]
But it's metal on metal[00:02:28]
It's the dance of TV[00:02:31]
If Christ were here he'd camera check[00:02:34]
He'd cry so loud the planes would stop[00:02:37]
He'd cry so loud the earth would shake[00:02:41]
And men would fall in tinsel town[00:02:45]
There's just one thing[00:02:51]
Yes there's just one thing[00:02:53]
And there's just one thing[00:02:55]
And there's just one thing[00:02:57]
And there's just one thing[00:02:59]
And there's just one thing[00:03:02]
And there's just one thing[00:03:04]
Who can stand in the way[00:03:12]
When there's a dollar to be made[00:03:15]
Who can stand in the way[00:03:23]
When there's a dollar to be made[00:03:25]
Precious moments precious few[00:03:37]
When that dollar's more than me and you[00:03:40]
It's the joy of forgetting[00:03:44]
Such a joy to forget[00:03:46]
But we killed all our firstborn[00:03:48]
And we slashed and we burned[00:03:50]
And we sold off the paddocks[00:03:52]
And we raped and we gouged[00:03:54]
On the wings of a six pack[00:03:56]
Will we ever learn[00:03:58]
