Dear Year-9 students,
Here comes the original version of the song we worked on yesterday. Remember, it was released in 1987 by the Australian band Midnight Oil.
You can compare the original lyrics to the ones we worked on.
Enjoy!
Mrs G.
Midnight Oil
« Out where the river broke
The bloodwood and the desert oak
Holden wrecks and boiling diesels
Steam in forty five degrees
The time has come
To say fair’s fair
To pay the rent
To pay our share
The time has come
A fact’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
Four wheels scare the cockatoos
From Kintore East to Yuendemu
The western desert lives and breathes
In forty five degrees »
