Beds Are Burning
Various Artists · Other Songs - Various Artists
The bloodwood and the desert oak
Holden wrecks and boiling diesels
Steam in forty five degrees
The time has come
To say fairs fair
To pay the rent
To pay our share
The time has come
A facts a fact
It belongs to them
Lets give it back
How can we dance when our earth is turning
How do we sleep when our beds are burning
How can we dance when our earth is turning
How do we sleep when our beds are burning
The time has come
A facts a fact
It belongs to them
Lets give it back
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 fairs fair
To pay the rent
To pay our share
The time has come
A facts a fact
It belongs to them
Lets give it back
(live - on scream in blue
The time has come
A facts a fact
It belongs to us all
Lets give it back)
