Midnight Oil

Outbreak Of Love

The world is crashing down on me tonight
The walls are closing in on me tonight
Cos I know this is the end of the beginning of the outbreak of love
The stars come falling down on me tonight
Sharks are coming up to feed
I believe its time to move
Divers coming up to breathe
But Im not in the mood
No Im not in the mood
(hirst)

Dust

Its 2am in town hall station
Black walls and sleeping drunks
Are bad companions
Ice is there
Fear is there
Everyone is nowhere theres too much of nothing
Take me away
It 9am in town hall station
Flashing faces and grey herds no comparison
So sorry
So straight
Everyone is nowhere theres too much of nothing
Take me away
Its 2 am...
(moginie/garrett/hirst)

Profiteers

Look up on the ledge, theres a bomber diving on the golden street
Down below the crowd is falling, bullets under feet
Dont tell me, dont tell me, hey dont tell me
Were under the beat of a brand-new marching order
Ears to be ground theres a party planned for the new recruits
Hurricane lamps are burning, teargas fills the route, yeah
(hirst/moginie/rotsey)

One Too Many Times

She was the golden summer wine
And now shes black and blue resigned
He took advantage like the spider, helpless
One too many times
You had to go ahead and sing
You had to steal that diamond ring
Upon the headstone so inscribed, they cried
One too many times
We are so human, were so small
Were always coming back for more
A second helping third and fourth, its gone
One too many times
One too many times

Gravelrash

Skating down the street just beware;
people dropping dirt bombs everywhere.
when you smell that asphalt grin
and you feel it burn your skin
Its gravelrash!
burning on your ass
Gravelrash.
stay away from those cheap mopeds
dangerous on the road protect your head
enjoy the sun the beach and the smiles
beware the sand on the corner arhh!
Burning my ass
its gravelrash yeah!
woo hoo hooo! alright!
Gravelrash.
Goodnight.

Seeing Is Believing

I was asleep with both eyes open
Dream freeze sprinklers in the sun
Beer soaked mansions block the sky,
Dingos howl and white flags fly
The futures put on hold and youre still young
But I know seeing is believing
I cant believe what Im seeing
I was crying with both eyes open
But now all is quiet on dripfeed lottery night
Curse the dugong, free the jet ski,
Suckling babies at the eski
Invite the looters back the price is right.

Drop In The Ocean

Here comes the olive branch man
Hell press it any way he can
He tries so hard to understand
Here comes the tired statesman
Heavy lidded bearded nowhere left to land
He makes the jigsaw fit
With a hammer in his hand
Its just a drop in the ocean
Here comes the nightmare man
Hes got the numbers bottom line and sleight of hand
Hes smiling everywhere he can with feeling
For every fallen soldier every grain of sand
Its just a drop in the ocean

Somebodys Trying To Tell Me Something

Breaking me down - lunatic noises
Breaking me down - desperate voices
Breaking me down - phone is blistering
Breaking me down - death by listening
Somebodys out there, somebodys waiting
Somebodys trying to tell me something
Somebodys trying to talk to me
Cracking me up - silence threatening
Cracking me up - storm is deafening
Cracking me up - pressure brought to bear
Cracking me up - now Im getting there
(hirst/rotsey/moginie/gifford/garrett)

Basement Flat

Must be time for a second chance
I cant escape this basement flat
Writers cramp and claustrophobia
Must be time for a better place
My sink leaks and the rats have won the race
Over and over
What, can I do
There must be some solution
Must be time for a new idea
Pack up my things and get away from here
Theyre never gonna trace me
People upstairs make so much noise
Drive me mad with their electrical toys
Louder and louder
(rotsey/garrett/moginie)

Im The Cure

Tell all your friends Im the cure
Tell them again and again
Watching the walls, spinning in doors
I can bring you peace of mind
Use me whenever you please
Sweeter than sweet memories
Everythings neat, avoiding the heat
I can give you peace of mind
All this pressure I cant handle
Everything else becomes dim
Youre so much better than them
Waiting around for something to happen
Bring you this instant relief
Kilo pascals in my finger
God is hiding in this teacup
