Versuri - m - Midnight Oil - Maralinga

			
			
(spoken)

I come from a land of wide open spaces

Where the world turns around us and we just follow
suit

There's heat in the air and peace reigns supreme

Got white flags on the clothes lines and the deals
are new

In the wind, the ashes fly

The poison crown, the charcoal ground

And if you can't see the smile in me

That's where I want to be

There's only God, There's only Christ

Think I'll lie down, for just a while

So watch and check them out and listen as we learn

Throw the pearls before the swine, ebb and flow
and turning tide

Yes we watch and catch them down no matter how
they jump

The pigs will have to come to ground,we've got to
make it happen now

It's not really that new, try and make it happen
now

What are we to do, maybe there's a chance for you

All around, an eerie sound

Their dreams a cloud, their world in shrouds

In the wind, the ashes fly

Not much time, but time to try

And if you can't see the smile in me, that's where
I want to be

I want to be here at the, I have to be here at the
end
