The time has come,
to say fair's fair,
to pay the rent,
to pay our share....

"The time has come
To say fair's fair
To pay the rent
To pay our share

The time has come
A fact's a fact
It belongs to them
Let's give it back

How can we dance
When our earth is turning?
How do we sleep
While our beds are burning?"

- , 1987

This song really gets to me it’s message is relevant now more than ever, 1987 song from the album Diesel and Dust , charted high in several countries and in 2001 Australasian Performing Rights Association industry panel declared it 3rd best Australian song ever, also one of The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's 500 Songs that shaped Rock and Roll, thanks Oils for this classic youtu.be/ejorQVy3m8E

Beds Are Burning - Midnight Oil

"Out where the river broke
The bloodwood and the desert oak
Holden wrecks and boiling diesels
Steam in forty five degrees

The time has come
To say fair's fair
To pay the rent
To pay our share

The time has come
A fact's a fact
It belongs to them
Let's give it back

How can we dance
When our earth is turning?
How do we sleep
While our beds are burning?

How can we dance
When our earth is turning?
How do we sleep
While our beds are burning?

The time has come
To say fair's fair
To pay the rent now
To pay our share

Four wheels scare the cockatoos
From Kintore East to Yuendumu
The Western Desert lives and breathes
In forty five degrees

The time has come
To say fair's fair
To pay the rent
To pay our share

The time has come
A fact's a fact
It belongs to them
Let's give it back

How can we dance
When our earth is turning?
How do we sleep
While our beds are burning?

How can we dance
When our earth is turning?
How do we sleep
While our beds are burning?

The time has come
To say fair's fair
To pay the rent now
To pay our share

The time has come
A fact's a fact
It belongs to them
We're gonna give it back

How can we dance
When our earth is turning?
How do we sleep
While our beds are burning?"
