Midnight Oil - Now Or Never Land Lyrics
I grew tall in this lucky landAnd I thank God for that, but theres needles in the sandOzone in the eucalypt and on the steppes tonightTheres pushing and a shoving on the throne tonightIts a rhythm of the seaLost islands of hopeIts a rhythm of the seaWho will discover youBut I wont be down at heel cos my senses lead me hereDream a south-pacific dream of now or never landIts now or never landRises in rivers in power of the sunRises in sea level, look out mammons bastard sonInfidels are praying at the stock exchangeChrome camels are crashing on the smooth terrainIts the rhythm of the seaLost islands of hopeIts the rhythm of the seaSomeone to carry youBut I wont be down at heel cos my senses lead me hereDream a south-pacific dream of now or never landSuitcase full of good ideas, history thats filled with tearsKill nostalgia, xenophobic fearsIts now or never landChant to end(moginie/garrett)
