lyrics

Paralysed
I’m paralysed
In paradise
I’m paralysed
Worrying won’t change a thing
In paradise
My first world guilt
Makes me feel
Like I really care
But faith without works is dead
Devoted to the show
Not the deeds of compassion
Full of good intentions but never any action

Oh goddamn
We drained the dam
Now the Kangaroos
Are drinking from the pool
While I float on by
The trees can’t decide
Whether to lose their leaves
Unseasonably
A little summer snow
And no-one knows
Which way the wind will blow
If you think it’s the end it’s only the beginning
Can you spare a minute for #activism?

Paralysed
I’m paralysed
In paradise
While the Hansonites
Take a plebiscite
To decide
If I can have a wife
I pay my fines
Taxes on time
But the feral right
Get to decide
If I can have a wife
If I can have a wife?
Born into hate
Brought up to despise
Frightened of a world
That’s left them behind.
