Who Are You?

Dead of the night with your pale hands writing songs about stolen land
Who are you?
Acknowledge the faults of your lineage, barbaric men on stolen land
Who are you?
Your privileged precedes you, intentions won’t cut through and it doesn’t matter that you were raised here too.
Who are you?

(We’re getting started)
I said your dreams might come true
Just like mine did
Girl, I know what you’ve been through
And how you like to sin
I said get on over here
Get on over here right now baby
Honey where you been?
Waiting’s getting tiresome lately
Finger on the gun
Pull the trigger you shoot me baby
You’re my number one
So, spit your gum and
(Let’s get started)
There’s a girl I’ve been watching
Through rainy afternoons
She’s my beacon of light
My heat through the night
And she’s leading me right up to her room
I said get on over here
Get on over here right now baby
Honey where you been?
Waiting’s getting tiresome lately
Finger on the gun
Pull the trigger you shoot me baby
You’re my number one
So, spit your gum and
Let’s get started!
Get it started x9
Mm yeah
You better work it baby
And if your dreams do come true
Just like mine did
I hope you wrap it up, fill it out, spin in round, twist and shout and work it baby
Yeah
Cos you are the most beautiful person
That I have ever seen
That I have ever seen
That’s all you’ve ever been
All you’ve ever been
So I say
get on over here
Get on over here right now baby
Honey where you been?
Waiting’s getting tiresome lately
Finger on the gun
Pull the trigger you shoot me baby
You’re my number one
So spit your gum and
Let’s get started!
Let’s get started x6

Hey, have you had anything to drink tonight?
My heart pounds as you steal a long breath
It’s a Saturday night and I’m in the mood to fight
The ones who hold our heads under water
You’re the Rinehart’s favourite daughter
Endowed in silks, dressed head to toe in law and order
Can’t imagine how you sleep at night
Blue eyes stare, lips smile as you say
I don’t wanna
I wanna fuck the cops x16
Have you thought about why you’re doing it?
What the uniform means?
Have you thought about why you do it?
What does the uniform mean?
What the uniform means
What does the uniform mean?
Who left this trash at my doorstep?
I can’t respect a man who loves his job
Walking past the bodies in the living room
And I catch him there, making love to the pinup girl
Wipe that lipstick off your cheek sergeant
Do you know she’s riding an A-bomb?
Set to level our heads and break our necks
Even leave a knife where we tread and leather where we step
How can I begin to explain you’ve made a mistake?
Your occupation has it’s hand up a skirt
That can’t spell deserved, and its red everywhere
Black and white and blue and red
and black and white and blue and red
and yellow and green and purple and red
and blue and red and blue and red
As tall as a city, and we are ants

Tangle of Shame
01:58
|

|
I’m tired, I’m running on empty
And my empathy is taking it hard
I’ve exhausted my capacity
I need a refill, I need a refill
My ambition might take me too high
Melt my wax wings, and prevent me to fly
Any higher, and send me plummeting to the ground
You will see my silhouette and my shadow collide
In an ugly tangle of shame
Might not ever see me the same again
And I’ve had it up to here with you talking over people
(send me plummeting to the ground)
And I wish you’d disappear and take your attitude with ya
(See my silhouette and my shadow collide)
And I’ve had it up to here with you talking over people
(send me plummeting to the ground)
And I wish you’d disappear and take your attitude with ya
(See my silhouette and my shadow collide)
And I’ve had it up to here with you talking over people
(send me plummeting to the ground)
And I wish you’d disappear and take your attitude with ya
(See my silhouette and my shadow collide)
And I’ve had it up to here with you talking over people
(send me plummeting to the ground)
And I wish you’d disappear and take your attitude with ya
(See my silhouette and my shadow collide)
And I’ve had it up to here.

Sail away with you, my love
Far across the ocean blue
And write letters to
Our high school selves
Pretending that we have all the answers now
I don’t ever wanna say goodbye
I tell you honestly, that’s no lie
I only want to be with you
I don’t ever wanna say goodbye
I tell you honestly, that’s no lie
I only want to be with you
I only want to, be with you, be with you, be with you, be with you
I only want to, be with you, be with you, be with you, be with you
I only want to, be with you, be with you, be with you, be with you
I only want to, be with you, be with you, be with you, be with you

Coming down through outer space
Gonna crash land right outside your place girl
Spaceship’s burning up right now
Gonna start a new life with you, I’ll show you how
Cos girl I know you’re looking for something new
Don’t look too far cos I’m the one for you
And all my loving is burning like an asteroid
like an asteroid like an asteroid
I’ll tell you once not even twice
That my body’s as cold as ice
The deep expanse has an absence of warming light
But girl I saw you shining through like a beacon to guide me home
So I set my coordinates to calculate my chances with you
An asteroid is coming to town
My asteroid is coming to you x2
An asteroid is coming to town
My asteroid is coming to you x4
