Maralinga
(spoken)
I come from a land of wide open spaces
Where the world turns around us and we just follow suit
Theres 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 cant see the smile in me
Thats where I want to be
Theres only god, theres only christ
Think Ill 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,weve got to make it happen now
Its not really that new, try and make it happen now
What are we to do, maybe theres 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 cant see the smile in me, thats where I want to be
I want to be here at the, I have to be here at the end
(moginie/garrett)
