what am i gonna do - what about the future?
gotta draw the line without delay
why shouldn't i get emotional - the bush is sacred
ancient life will fade away
over the hill they go
killing another mountain
gotta fill the quota - can't go slow
huge machinery wiping out the scenery
one big swipe like a shearer's blow
rip rip woodchip - turn it into paper
throw it in the bin
no news today
nightmare
dreaming - can't you hear the screaming?
chainsaw
eyesore - more decay
remember the axemen knew their timber
cared about the way they brought it down
crosscut
blackbutt
tallowood and cedar
build another bungalow - pioneer town
i am the bush and i am koala
we are one - go hand in hand
i am the bush like banjo and henry
it's in my blood - gonna make a stand
rip rip woodchip - turn it into paper
throw it in the bin
no news today
nightmare
dreaming - can't you hear the screaming?
chainsaw
eyesore - more decay
rip rip woodchip - turn it into paper
throw it in the bin - don't understand
nightmare
dreaming - can't you hear the screaming?
stirs my blood - gonna make a stand
