Midnight hangs with my girlfriend Watching the world spin Around again Spin Around again January 1st There’s a party going on watching fireworks Love is in the streets while the fire burns A country to it’s knees I can smell the summer heat Choking up the trees Blood is on the leaves In Mallacoota they’re on high alert Slumber on the beach Ashes fill the whole sky while our government’s Sucking the teat of Adani coal mines Struggle to see why we’ve let these old guys Treat us like fumbling sheep this fucking whole time Oi Did they sell you lies? Did they lift you up? Still from hell you climb witnessin’ this life Our wings get plucked and I can’t tell you why Oh what a tangled web we weave No leadership No hope tonight it breaks my heart SongtexteLike a phoenix let’s see how well you rise Is it too little too late they said there’d be days like this Kinda strange watch the fire and the flames on a day like this Midnight hangs with my girlfriend Watching the world spin Around again Spin Around again Midnight hangs with my girlfriend Watching the world spin Around again Spin Around again January 1st Has got me thinking is it ever gonna rain again If there’s really a God we better pray to him Middle finger to Scott No, I won’t shake your hand I don’t think you do your job You just get paid for it So we grit our teeth We get this done But what will I tell my daughter when and if the future come They gonna sell our water ’til they use it up Stolen land is slaughtered for resources and all we do is shrug What the fuck Black fellas tryna warn us but we never listen and all we do is judge While our judges get them sent to prison First Nation tryna warn us but we never learn it “How do we sleep when our beds are burning” These are just some thoughts that are rollin’ round my head While the last second of the year ticks closer to the end Can you hold my hand Can you stay right here They always said they’d be days like this Midnight hangs with my girlfriend Watching the world spin Around again Spin Around again Midnight hangs with my girlfriend Watching the world spin Around again Spin Around again Is it too little too late they said there’d be days like this Kinda strange watch the fire and the flames on a day like this Aus Songtexte Mania
