Midnight Oil - Power And The Passion слова песни
People, wasting away in paradiseGoing backward, once in a whileMoving ahead, falling behindWhat do you believeWhat do you believeWhat do you believe is trueNothing they say makes a difference this way`Cos nothing they say will doTake all the trouble that you can affordAt least you won`t have time to be boredOh the power and the passionOh the temper of the timeOh the power and the passionSometimes you`ve got to take the hardest lineI see sunburnt faces aroundWith skin so brownSmiling zinc cream and crowsSundays the beach never a cloudBreathing eucalypt, pushing panelvans, stuff and munch junk foodLaughing at the truth, `cos Gough was tough till he hit the roughUncle Sam and John were quite enoughToo much of sunshine too much of skyIt`s enough to make you wanna cryI see buildings, clothing the sky in paradiseSydney, where the nights are warmDaytime telly, blue rinse dawnDad`s so bad he lives in a pub, underarms and football clubsFlat chat, Pin Gap in every home a Big MacAnd no one goes back, that`s thatYou take what you get and get what you pleaseIt`s better to die on your feet than to live on your knees
