Dancin' Under a Southern Sky
Livin' here in the southern land
Part of a world that we can't understand
Down on the beach
We watch the days go by
Dancin' under a southern sky
We cut your forests, we cut our brothers' heart
We dam your rivers and pull your mountains apart
We tried to make this place into one big farm
Like European countryside
Dancin' under a southern sky
How long can this keep goin' on
Before we realize what we had is gone?
How long can we ignore the fact
It's the Garden of Eden under attack?
You can't stop it, the great suburban sprawl
Out on the freeway you might as well get out and crawl
Somewhere in the outback, on the sunset desert
A lonesome dingo cries
Dancin' under a southern sky
How long can this keep goin' on
Before we realize what we had is gone?
When it's too late, there's no turnin' back
The Garden of Eden under attack
Can't you see that?
Livin' here in the southern land
Who really cares, who even wants to understand?
It can't be progress to cut your own throat
And watch your soul slowly die
Dancin' under a southern sky
Dancin' under a southern sky
Dancin' under a southern sky
Part of a world that we can't understand
Down on the beach
We watch the days go by
Dancin' under a southern sky
We cut your forests, we cut our brothers' heart
We dam your rivers and pull your mountains apart
We tried to make this place into one big farm
Like European countryside
Dancin' under a southern sky
How long can this keep goin' on
Before we realize what we had is gone?
How long can we ignore the fact
It's the Garden of Eden under attack?
You can't stop it, the great suburban sprawl
Out on the freeway you might as well get out and crawl
Somewhere in the outback, on the sunset desert
A lonesome dingo cries
Dancin' under a southern sky
How long can this keep goin' on
Before we realize what we had is gone?
When it's too late, there's no turnin' back
The Garden of Eden under attack
Can't you see that?
Livin' here in the southern land
Who really cares, who even wants to understand?
It can't be progress to cut your own throat
And watch your soul slowly die
Dancin' under a southern sky
Dancin' under a southern sky
Dancin' under a southern sky
