Beds are burning

Out where the river broke
The blood wood and the desert oak
Holden wrecks and boiling diesels steam
In fourty-five degrees

The time has come
To say fair's fair
To pay the rent
To pay our share

The time has come
A tact's a fact
It belongs to them
Let's give it back

R:
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 and
To pay our share

Four wheels scare the cockatoos from Kintyre East to Yuendemu
The western desert lives and breathes in fourty-five degrees

The time has come
To say fair's fair
To pay the rent and
To pay our share

The time has come
A tact's a fact
It belongs to them
Let´s give it back

The time has come
To say fair's fair
To pay the rent and
To pay our share

The time has come
A tact'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?

How can we dance when our earth is turning?
How do we sleep while our beds are burning?
