Mother and child playing on the lawn |
|
It's a middle class home on a |
|
Sunday morning |
|
And the mother says, son, where ya gonna run |
|
Where ya gonna run to now? |
|
I just jumped bail on a dope bust mum |
|
And I'm saying goodbye and then the drug squad come |
|
And in the name of the law |
|
They punch him in the jaw |
|
Where ya gonna run to now? |
|
A long white car out of |
|
Tullamarine |
|
A government member to the |
|
Carribean |
|
And a man with a broom |
|
Yells across the room |
|
Where ya gonna run to now? |
|
Will you have to tell lies when the kids ask you why |
|
The horizon's a blanket of gloom |
|
When the battle lines draw |
|
Which way will you turn |
|
Terania Creek's got a dozer track |
|
And we'll never ever get |
|
Lake Pedder back |
|
A director and a graph |
|
And a million dollar laugh |
|
Where ya gonna run to now? |
|
Enrich the oxide out of |
|
Port Pirie |
|
And the toxic gases they won't even see |
|
But where ya gonna go |
|
When the North wind blows |
|
Where ya gonna run to now? |
|
And your loungeroom is screening |
|
Nationwide |
|
And you've just given blood to the bank |
|
And the books on your shelves |
|
Are a measure of all that you've earned |
|
Will you have to tell lies when the kids ask you why |
|
The horizon's a blanket of gloom |
|
When the battle lines draw |
|
Which way will you turn |
|
Shake me, wake me, tell me it's a dream |
|
I've got a |
|
B-52 on my |
|
TV screen |
|
And a man in a tie |
|
Pointing to the sky |
|
Where ya gonna run to now |
|
Mother and child playing on the lawn |
|
It's a middle class home on a |
|
Sunday morning |
|
And the mother says, son, where ya gonna run |
|
Where ya gonna run to now? |
