Goodbye Lucky Country

Have you got a dream for sale tonight
Did you waste your time in paradise
Consumers, smartphones and likes
Goodbye lucky country, goodnight

Everyone knows smoke on the breeze
April, May, June’ll be alright
Bushfire burnt right to her door
Goodbye lucky country, goodnight
And while you’re sleeping
Someone’s screaming
Goodbye lucky country, goodnight

Have you got what you want
Have you got what you need
Have you got what you want
Are we one and are we free?

Dad drinks Dan’s but Bob’s his man
Seventy five built panel van
Steel eyed manufacturing man
Goodbye lucky country, goodnight
And while you’re sleeping
Someone’s screaming
Goodbye lucky country, goodnight

Have you got what you want
Have you got what you need
Have you got what you want
Are we one and are we free?

Are we one in January?
Are we one in February?

Have you got what you want
Have you got what you need
Have you got what you want
Are we one and are we free?
