Midnight Oil One Country Lyrics

1st Verse
Who'd like to change the world
Who wants to shoot the curl
Who gets to work for bread
Who wants to get ahead
Who hands out equal rights
Who starts and ends that fight
And not not rant and rave
Or end up a slave
Who can make hard won gains
Fall like the summer rain
Now every man must be
What his life can be
So don't call, me, the tune, I will walk away
Break: Repeat x3
2nd Verse:
Who want's to please everyone
Who says it all can be done
Still sit up on that fence
No-one I've heard of yet
Don't call me baby
Don't talk in maybes
Don't talk like has-beens
Sing it like it should be
Who laughs at the nagging doubt
Lying on a neon shroud
Just gotta touch someone
I want to be
So don't call, me, the tune, I will walk away
Don't call, me, the tune, I will walk away
Don't call, me, the tune, I will walk away
Break: Repeat x3
Bridge:
Chorus:
One country
One country
One country
One country
Who wants to sit around
(One country)
Turn it up turn it down
(One country)
Only a man can be
(One country)
What his life can be
(One country)
One vision one people
(One country)
One landmass we are defenceless
(One country)
We have
(One country)
A lifeline
(One country)
One ocean, one policy
Seabed lies
One passion, one movement, one instant, one difference
One lifetime, one understanding
Hey hey hey-hey, one country
(One country)
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah, one country
(One country)
I tell you, it's one country
(One country)
Hey hey hey-hey hey
(One country)
Yeah one, one, one
(One country)
One, one, one, one country
(One country)
One, one
(One country)
Understanding
(One country)
Outro:
Transgression, redemption
One island blue, our placemat
One firmament, one element
One moment, one fusion, yes and one time
