I AM The Mountain Old man had a window But now it's bricked in Used to sit by the window Watch the spinifex roll in All that's left is just a masa dem nada They could've saved it if they tried a bit harder Even the fat cats are now Thin on the ground They shoulda listened to the Ibis When they suddenly hit town Al I'm hearing is I told you so's I told you so I told you so Him seh yeah I am the mountain and I am the sea You can walk on the water And climb over me There were cedars to horizon Sun never hit the ground There's no pop in the dirt now No drop in the cloud Feelin' abandon like a Beaten-up boxer They've fallen deaf When opportunity knocksa Would not know a good thing if it Was half way up their ass Here it comes now just Step out of the way And Let it pass Misspelt graffiti bubblin' Underneath my skin Yeah we used to get along But now the humour's wearing thin All I'm hear in is I told you so's I told you so I told you so yeah yeah I am the mountain And I am the sea You can walk on the water And climb over me Hey hey they've run down the heroes Who's gonna save us From the danger as we sail Over the edge of the wine-dark sea Chase down the autograph of a zero You know we're in trouble When we're holding The celebrity chef up As someone to be So take a photo of Your plate of food Put your neck out You can feel the mood The bottom 20 really ready A sight so pretty When they come to Burn you city down I am the mountain And I am the sea You can walk on the water Climb over me But don't you try to reason Reason with the demons In your mind Let them run their course They'll be gone in time I am the mountain And I am the sea You can walk on the water And climb over me

Po-Gangstas 03:50
Po-Gangstas Catch every headlight hit my window I can’t sleep tonight, I can’t sleep tonight When I look outside you’ve crashed the car again What will I do with you now that you’ve gone You stagger in drunk with your hand painted black From the stencil you left at the station Tonight it’s raining and the police are warm and dry With some hot chips and cocoa inside They’re hiding in the cracks all over town It’s a fight you can’t win so keep your head down Fight you can’t win so keep it down We can’t wait to be free Just got to be free In Babylon by the sea you’re just a kitty in a tree And they just can’t wait to take you down down Tonight it’s raining and the police are warm and dry With some hot chips and cocoa inside It’s time to mash up the place we take that smile off their face Yeah yeah yeah Can’t wait to be free, free yeah There’s your brother sittin’ on Redfern Street Smokin’ White Ox in the sun That’s all it takes for the uniform kid To step up and they point their gun They’re so active in this part of town Shooting’ and a Lootin’ just for fun They got the blazin’ tasers and the capsicum sprays Because they’re all around five foot one Tonight it’s raining and the police are warm and dry With some hot chips and cocoa inside It’s time to mash up the place We take that smile off their face Yeah yeah yeah Can’t wait to be free, free yeah

Bad For Business That’s bad, that’s bad for business don’t ya know Don’t ya know Oh no no, kitchen sippin’ Bitchen in the kitchen Trickle down dick around It’s back to penny pinchin’ No time for thinkin’, and no time for dream Just get to the floor and man the machine We’re full-time workers in homeless shelters Huffin’ and puffin’ ‘bout the deal they dealt us Man on the street he knows it’s bad for business Now watch him as he goes against his own self-interest here Anything else would be bad for business don’t ya know Six out of seven days worked to the bone Standing up asleep on the bus ride home You’re my hobbled slave, haven’t you heard? You belong to me now You, you dirty bird Bossman’s talkin’ bout use your imagination Well I can’t sleep in the car no more It’s out of registration He ask you to jump, you say how high But when the bright day come You grow some wings and fly Man on the street he knows it’s bad for business But still he’ll probably go against his own self-interest And that’s good for business They send the poor boys off to die Anything else would be bad for business don’t ya know Hear that beast knockin’ at ya door Gonna grab you by the throat and nail ya to the floor You even dream about you wanna run away Save your legs for the brighter day Day to day come what may There’s always the brighter day x 2 Sell you the air that you’re breathin’ Leave it un checked its a greed-a-thon It’s tongue-in-cheek when they sell you the T.I.N.A. Do what the Mama Gaia sey x 3 Destroy this business model or it’ll all just stop

Night To Day 04:20
Night to day When I eat ‘em it’s for down down down Night to day Make my blue eyes, my blue eyes brown Lyin’ on the beach, I’m doin’ backstroke in the sand Feeling’ every grain now as they tumble down my hand The people on the island wanna know from where I came I said I’m aimin’ like a shamen Wanna change my name to Shaing Things be gettin’ heated Things be gettin’ tight Multiplyin’ feet begin to shuffle in the night Their tongues are fast and when they speak They’re hard to understand Until they put me on their shoulders And start singin’ you de man Make my blue eyes brown when i eat them down Down down I eat them down Make my blue eyes brown when i eat them down Down down I eat them down Night to day When I eat ‘em it’s for down down down Night to day Make my blue eyes, my blue eyes brown (Gina Mitchell toastin’) This here style, it is my signature Original, jazz hands, Al Jolson singin’ at ya when i come around Estoy muy lejo de mi casa Just take it slow try not to move And don’t you make a fuss now I got my soul back with a soul clap start the car, tip out the club We’re goin’ back to Bobby Womack’s Cut a track with Mr Lomax, yeah yeah Cut a track with Mr Lomax Cos when I come around I’m gonna pick myself right up and eat them down Down down I eat them down
