Beds Are Burning lyrics

Out where the river broke The blood-wood 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? 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 now, to pay our share 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 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? 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? How can we dance when our earth is turning? How do we sleep while our beds are burning?
