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 the 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
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
to pay the share
Four wheels scare the cockatoos
From Kintyre East to Yuendemu
The wetsren desert lives and
Breathes in fourty-five degrees.
The time has come
to say fair's fair
To pay the rent
to pay the 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
How can we dance when our earth is turning
How do we sleep while our beds are burning
The time has come....
How can we dance....
