Lyrics

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
 Rip, rip wood chip, 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
 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
 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
