Lyrics
Fat of the land Juice of the people Won't save the prayer room Won't save the steeple Walking the country Cycling the lanes Thatched cottage houses Sink on Somerset plains Now the Australians Sick of their sun Abandoned beach volleyball And Bondi Beach bum Italians and Spanish The Portuguese too Will gradually move north from Mediterranean stew They put up their borders More passport controls Separate countries Divide up our souls But look out your window Check out the weather It's global warming That'll bring us together Out the aeroplane window The mountains below Gone is the winter Gone is the snow Go to the Alps now Pick up your skis Up in the chairlift Warm is the breeze Yours are the dry slopes Phoney the snow Our flight to get there So caused it to go You p*ss in the river sh*t on the land Leave all your plastic Washed up on the sand They put up their borders More passport controls Separate countries Divide up our souls But look out your window Check out the weather It's global warming That'll bring us together Go tell the sisters (Go tell the sisters) Talk to the brothers (Talk to the brothers) The lifestyle we're living (The lifestyle we're living) It strangles and smothers (It strangles and smothers) Let lessons be learned Let song be sung Treat your own country Like you do your own lungs [Outro]
